Hi Marcus,

What Emilie probably meant was that it would be a good idea to accept  
the buffering distance as an argument in Osmosis, so that Osmosis  
would apply the buffering before using the polygon to extract  
features. It would be necessary to do this by JTS or by another  
geometry library which can do the buffering.

Since I'm not a Java programmer, I haven't done that, but otherwise I  
might have given that a try.
