              team to do the carefully join of the boundaries with the
              already existent neighbor boundaries (same way I did with
              Jakarta project months ago), so Dewi can rely on me.</div>

    Yes, that is very important. But if OSM does not get the needed
    rights, nothing may be imported.<br>
    <br>
    btw: how do you handle the outer edges of any area? <br>
