I've been doing a lot of tidying up coastline data throughout the world in
the last month, and although I'm pretty sure that I have not created any
further errors, some of the areas which needed tidying were quite complex,
and an error or two may have crept in.
I thought I'd wait till the next set of the coastline error checker files
[1] which should be next week, check if there are no major problems, and
then suggest to the sys admins that the coastline shapefiles be updated.
It would be a pity to update the shapefiles now to fix the issue in
Colombia, only for issues to appear elsewhere on the map.
If I had the bandwidth I'd download the planet file and produce the error
checker files myself, but I'm afraid its not really practical for me to do
that.
