<p dir="ltr">Hi all,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Just heard Bart Tommelein on De Ideale Wereld this
evening, state secretary of the north sea (amongst other
things). There he said that the north sea is a pure federal
responsibility, but the beach is a regional (thus Flemish)
responsibility. However, the boundary isn't the high water line
(which we tag with natural=coastline), but the official boundary
is the low water line (I assume it's the average low water line
here, though it could also be the most extreme low water line).</p>
<p dir="ltr">I guess, ideally, this should be reflected in our
data, where we tag the intermediate section as tidal too.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Now, the only thing we're missing is actual high and
low water data :)</p>
<p dir="ltr">So if anyone knows about open, high position datasets
that contains the tidal regions, that would be great. Else we
might try to split it with estimated data.<br>

Given that unusable wet sand is of little value, the real issue is
to whom the water and the shrimps would belong. <br>
Half of the time they would be over regional land and half of the
time over federal land.<br>
