The similar issue is with coastlines in these extracts. Geofabrik's extracts only contain the coastline within country's borders , which makes it difficult to render the sea using renderers like Maperitive. A better solution would be use the bounding box of the country as the criteria for including the coastline.<br>

<br>
I am wondering about the country data dumps. I have already found out<br>
that there are two ways how to clip the data to the bounding box<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm/FAQ" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm/FAQ</a><br>
one used by geofabrik and other by cloudmade, but still...<br>
<br>
The issue I am facing involves this example:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/?minlon=12.09619&minlat=48.54291&maxlon=18.86011&maxlat=51.05889&box=yes&node=658684925" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/?minlon=12.09619&minlat=48.54291&maxlon=18.86011&maxlat=51.05889&box=yes&node=658684925</a><br>
<br>
The link shows the bounding box used to clip the data in the dump and<br>
a node that is within the bounding box but not in the dump. The node<br>
has not been recently edited so no transaction isolation issues should<br>
come to play. The geofabrik dumps clip incomplete entities so the<br>
problem is slightly different but the result is the same - there is<br>
not enough data in the dump to reconstruct the border of Czech Rep<br>
even thought the missing things are within the export bounding box and<br>
have not been recently edited.<br>
<br>
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?<br>
<br>
