[talk-au] NSW Parish Maps
I took a quick look at some of the maps available at http://parishmaps.lands.nsw.gov.au/ and there is some information there that is not mapped (like school names, park names... etc.). I was going to use them as a mapping source. Has anyone else used them for this? Legality wise, I would only use maps that are "dated" as prior to 1960 (which most are), but I still don't know if this passes all requirements (because they may not have been "published" until much later, I'm not sure). Even so, should copying from these maps be avoided and left to surveying the area? A large chunk of the street names and stuff was taken from out of copyright commercial street directories... so I don't see why this would be any different in that sense. Oh and I've collated a list of URLs of all the mrsid files (and an index) they offer if anyone wanted to mass download them. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

The municipality ones seem much more useful for osm than the pastor or parish maps, but I could only find a limited number of municipalities.

...and some of the ones of the form PMapMN* in the parish list are also useful, Parish Index: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=DukQYBmV SID files: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=CAQiN7bt (but I don't thing these two are complete lists) ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
