<div id="ygrps-yiv-615413767">I&#39;ve now harvested border data for Asia from the World Vector <br/>
Shoreline and World DataBase II data. I&#39;ve uploaded another big file <br/>
containing lat/long data sequences for all Asian borders to the Files <br/>
area. It contains a little extra from me - for completeness I created <br/>
a dataset for the East Timor fragment myself. I also revised the data <br/>
for the Oman-Yemen border, which was seriously wrong in both WVS and <br/>
WDB - fortunately Biger gives the exact coordinates for the various <br/>
straightline segments.<br/>
Below are spuriously accurate lat/long for the 43 Asian tripoints. <br/>
All have been taken directly from the WVS/WDB dataset, except I&#39;ve <br/>
adjusted the coords for omsaye to the precise value defined by <br/>
treaty, rather than the six-decimal 9s appearing in the original <br/>
database.<br/>
