<div dir="auto">This may be slightly off-topic, but for the purpose of mapping border zones it would be nice if JOSM had a buffer tool, similar to the one in ArcGIS: <a href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/analysis/buffer.htm">https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/analysis/buffer.htm</a><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Unfortunately I don't have the skills to code this, so for now I'm just bringing this up as a curiosity. </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Op di 21 sep. 2021 16:49 schreef onehalf3544 <<a href="mailto:onehalf3544@gmail.com">onehalf3544@gmail.com</a>>:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello all,<br>
