[OSM-talk] Mapnik rendering of Marinas changed

[Patrick Kilian]

Hi all,

IIRC there was a discussion in #osm which basically went like this:

"Does leisure=marina cover the land portion or the water portion of the
marina"

"hm, well don't know. wiki says it's the land part"


"well anyway. rendering it in the color of water is bad. if it is water
you don't see that it is a marina and if it is land it should be blue"

"ah well makes sense. lets change it to a border line. that isn't
confusing and opens more options when we want to start rendering tidal
waters."

"ok lets make it a blue dashed line and see who complains".

The discussion was about three week old and quoted from memory, so I
might be slightly wrong.


HTH,
