[Talk-it] Import of Swiss Boundaries

[Thomas Ineichen]

(Can someone please translate the following to Italian? I can read  
Italian but I'm not good at writing it..)

Dear neighbours,

we received the permission from SwissTopo to import the municipal  
boundaries for Switzerland. As this also means to make edits along the  
national borders, I'd like you to have a look at my visualisation of  
the data:

http://osm.t-i.ch/gg.html


The data is tha same as it is used for official maps with a scale of  
1:25'000 and from what I've seen, it looks to be more accurate than  
the present data, e.g. it follows the outline of this river:

http://osm.t-i.ch/gg.html?zoom=14&lat=46.13847&lon=8.61022&layers=BT


Apart from the amount of work it will be to reconnect the borderlines  
with existing municipal boundaries in Italy, are there any objections  
or reasons, why the new Swiss data should not be used as borderline  
between Italy and Switzerland? (And: Does anybody know the source of  
the present data?)


Regards,
Thomas
