My 2-centavos worth of observation ... We may be looking in the wrong
direction ...

Maning earlier stated:

The coastline west of Luzon.  Is now filled with water again,  we had
to use enormous dredging machines to removed re-claimed land.  See it
in osmarender:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=15.076&lon=120.598&zoom=9&layers=0B00FFTF

Actually, it is not filled with water, but ALL LAND.  The sea "dried up" or
was not defined for that particular map tile.  IMHO, perhaps a layer that
defines the water has been removed or missed out?
