I have switch the Mapnik layer over to use the new coastline shapefiles for zooms 10-18. These files are generated by extracting all the OSM ways with natural=coastline.
In most places these shapefiles are far better then what we had before. A few places either have bad coastline data and may now appear to be flooded. You can get an overview of the data from: http://tile.openstreetmap.nl There was a brief period this evening where an error caused all tiles to be flooded. This is fixed now and these tiles should have been re-rendered. If you saw these bad tiles earlier you might need to refresh your browser to get rid of them. I need to thank everyone that has worked diligently on importing and fixing up the coastline data. A special mention should also go to Martijn van Oosterhout (kleptog) for developing the tools that have been essential to fix these coastlines and create the new shapefiles.
