<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>effectively you have a circle (OK the island may
not be a circle but you get my drift), and you want everything outside of it to
be blue, but I'm not aware of any SVG to do such a thing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I think the solution is in JOSM draw a big square
round the island and tag it as natural = coastline, and then change the real
coastline tags to natural = land</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [OSM-newbies] osmrenderer shows
coastline land/ocean inversion,regardless of way direction</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi All,<BR><BR>I've used JOSM to download an area of interest,
which is an island, and then generated an SVG file from the downloaded
data.<BR>Although the island is rendered fine on <A
href="http://www.openstreetmap.org">www.openstreetmap.org</A> maps, the
ocean/land is inverted on my render.<BR>i.e. land is filled blue (ocean) and
the ocean is filled white (land).<BR><BR>I am aware that land should be on the
left, and this is the case in JOSM.<BR>Reversing the way direction doesn't
correct the problem.<BR><BR>Have I found a osmrenderer bug?<BR>Probably not,
but what else could be the problem?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Craig<BR>
