[talk-ph] Correcting Philippine coastlines

[maning sambale]

Thanks for the lakewalker tip!  I didn't get it to work before, but
now it's working quite fine for the lakes I'm currently processing

It actually has complete coverage for the Philippines, give a few
incomplete segments.  If we want to continue importing them, we need
to inventory which areas of the SRTM coastline are already edited in
detail.  From experience, the PGS coastline has a couple of errors and
manual edits are still needed.  The source of the PGS coastline by the
way is also Landsat images.

Feel free to test import in some area and lets see how it goes in
terms of efficient workflow and effort.


cheers,
