RE: MI Irish Street data
Hi there! Your best data originator will be Ordnance Survey Southern Ireland. This organisation will be able to provide street data with street names (the equivalent of GB OS LandLine) for the main cities that you have mentioned, hopefully! The other alternative is that they may also have 1:10,000 raster tiles or hard copy maps. The mapping for Southern Ireland is a little behind Northern Ireland, so don't have high expectations. The alternative and cheaper option is to use The Data Consultancy's Cartique data sets. The scale is 1:300,000 and contains for example all the transport infrastructure such as a fairly detailed road network, railway lines, urban sprawls, coast line and a good gazetteer. The only problem is that the roads will only have road numbers and not names. The added advantage of Cartique is that you can produce car accessibility isochrones within a software package called Drivetime within MapInfo. Both are available via the Internet. Good hunting!

RE: MI Irish Street data
Another alternative source to OS for irish data is a company called Iris. The contact there is Neil Barry, he can be emailed on [EMAIL PROTECTED] or phoned on 00353 1662 5737. Alternatively you can look at their web site: http://www.iris-gis.com I've spoken to people with a range of experiences regarding data from OS Ireland so it may be worth giving Neil a try.
