[mkgmap-dev] Multipolygons and bounding box / bounding shape

Sun Jan 10 10:22:36 GMT 2010

I am trying to close polygons that are divided by the splitter or that 
are located on the border of the OSM dumps.

The OSM dumps are a problem for me as they don't have a rectangular 
bounding box. The bbox variable of the Osm5XmlHandler gives a 
rectangular boundig box only.
Is there any possibility to get the more or less exact bounding shape of 
an OSM dump? Otherwise I don't see any chance to close polygons reasonable.
