While mapping lots of little admin bounadaries in Ireland, I encountered this problem too, with splitting the "Ireland" admin boundary on the coast. It's a PITA, but if you upload & download/update as often as possible (even as soon as you make a change/split the way), then yous can alleviate as much as of the problem as possible.

Let's not map for database backend. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
