[mkgmap-dev] Sea and Bounds files

Mon Jul 13 17:58:57 BST 2015

Thanks for your reply, Maciej.

The bounds and coastline files are extracts from the OSM map file, so 
changes in that may cause changes in them. If they come from a different 
map file from that being compiled, there could be an impact on the 
compiled file.

At http://osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/sea/ (and similarly ../bounds/) 
there is a folder named 'latest'. Linking to this would avoid having to 
periodically update the links on the mkgmap page. Why would a download 
from the 'latest' folder be slower than from a dated one?

Regards,

Roger
