Afaik, you can recognise such borders only be watching them and notice that they are subject to vadalism from time to time. It would be nice if OSM would have a tag for disputed borders and that could be rendered as such. The issue of disputed borders is not only a topic in countries far away, even the dutch-german border is disputed at the coast. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/12/Deutsch-Niederl%C3%A4ndische_Grenzfrage.svg I know from a statement in one country that says something like "As long as the border is displayed wrong or not even marked as disputed like in Google, the government can not allow OSM to use their data". Up to now, OSM prefers one side over the other. -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/China-s-maps-to-be-closely-monitored-for-more-accuracy-China-Daily-tp5731736p5732112.html Sent from the General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
