SEGMENT-FILE1
SEGMENT-FILE2
Overview
The osmcoastline program can write out all segments of the coastline into a file (when started with the -S, --write-segments=FILE option). This program can be used to compare two of those segment files in various ways to detect coastline changes between different runs of the osmcoastline program.
