One Answer:
please type keywords like boundary, border, extract, boundaries, borders ... or similar in the search box of this FAQ site ... there are already a bunch of topics dealing with how to extract boundary lines from the raw OSM data. Also look in the OSM wiki about borders or boundaries and how they are tagged in the OSM database. And have a look at tools like osmfilter and overpassAPI ... they might be helpful for your aim. answered 16 Jun '13, 18:45  stephan75 |
