Hi RheinSkipper,

>Other geonames seem to be OK.

Use --description in your splitter args, otherwise if there are no places
in that tile, the splitter takes the  description of the previous tile.

Did you use --no-trim in your splitter parameters? Maybe this helps to cover some holes.

If you use --write-kml=filename.kml, the splitter will generate a kml file after the tiles are calculated,
so you can quickly see in Google Earth if there are still tiles in the sea that dont touch any coastline.
