Hello Torsten, The splitter works on a range of -180 to 180 longitude, and -85 to 85 degrees of latitude (the extremes are discarded to avoid crazy behaviour near the poles). So yes, -5 degrees should give you what you want, and the same logic applies if you want to include the equator. Creating a tile that spans the 180 degree longitude line isn't currently supported by the splitter because it doesn't yet deal with wrapping around from +180 to -180. Note that this also means no 'overlap' nodes will be included if they fall on the wrong side of the 180 degree line. The lack of 180 degree wrapping is a limitation I'm aware of but haven't fixed because it's a slightly tricky fix and it doesn't seem to have caused people any problems in practice so far. Is it likely to be a problem for you? Chris
Moin,
I want to use splitter (r109) for cutting a predifined tile that includes the prime meridian.
How do I set the coordinates west from the prime meridian? I tried to set the minimum longitude to 355 degrees, but the resulting tile was empty. Must I use -5 degrees instead?
And what about a tile including the equator or the 180 degrees longitude?
Gruss Torsten
