hi all, I worked a little more off the coast of tofino http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=49.1205&lon=-125.9333&zoom=12&layers=0B00FTF
You can see where the error is.. The error was (hopefully) caused by the clock-wise/ counter clockwise switch i did yesterday, just to see what happens. . Its interesting to see the green islands just above it. and just above that.. take a look at the beach on Vargas Island. I like how that shows up.... Any comments on it?
