Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] June meeting in Redditch
Hi Jonathan, Good to meet you at last! Fun evening and thoroughly enjoyable cycling in the sun. I think I'm done on my edits for now on the new Persimmon estate. http://osm.org/go/euyWtRnnw- If you download the development area in an editor you will see a box of building shapes off to the right of the current housing. These are just templates and can be used to drop in the correct building shapes and size as they get built if you like but if they get in the way just delete them. The building sizes/shapes I worked out from the text descriptions of the room sizes in the Persimmon brochure. Obviously the location of the built homes on the plan is approximate but shouldn't be too far off I hope. There are lots of garages that need drawing in one day when we have imagery. I have set the park area to what I think is intended but I may have the extent of the northern boundary wrong. If you get a chance to walk it you might find it needs a tweak, but of course it's likely to expand or change as an when the next stage of development happens. Near the centre of town I've also finished updates http://osm.org/go/euyWspejV-- but you might add the extent of what is possibly proposed for the Asda development if you see fit. Any queries drop me a line.

Any ideas?

[Talk-GB] Gaping hole in New Forest District
Hi, Since February the New Forest District admin boundary relation [1] has been sporting an exclave in the form of Ironshill Lodge [2]. I couldn't find anything on the internet about this, only about the various Inclosures in that area but nothing to indicate that the Lodge area is outwith the control of the local authority. I suspect the mapper's intention was to remove this cleared area from the surrounding forested area and he/she used the wrong relation. I mailed the user Broken Star a number of days ago but haven't had a reply yet. My particular interest is in fixing the hole in the admin boundary area. As far as I am concerned the offending polygon can be removed from the NFDC relation and the problem is fixed. Is there anyone in the area or otherwise in the know who can confirm or deny that this is represented correctly in OSM?

[Talk-GB] OSM volunteer to participate in panel discussion
Hello, I have had a request from Ian Holt of Ordnance Survey to see if anyone involved with OSM would like to sit on this panel: We have a Mobile Monday London event themed around location on the 24th June. Would you or someone you could suggest from OSM be able/willing to attend to sit on a panel? Topics will include crowd sourcing. http://www.mobilemonday.org.uk/ I don't feel remotely qualified to attend as my actual involvement in data capture is very limited. Can anyone suggest someone?

I think this is quite clearly a mistake; if it isn't part of NFDC then it would require either its own district authority, or even more bizarrely, unitary authority. I also can't find it in the OS Boundary Line dataset[1].

I'm not in the area, but DEFRA's MAGIC map (http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx) doesn't show it as an exclave for New Forest District (neither does BoundaryLine) or New Forest National Park. It does show as an exclave of New Forest Special Protection Area and New Forest Ramsar site, but I don't suppose either of those is mapped in OSM. -- Steve ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
Re: [Talk-GB] OSM volunteer to participate in panel discussion
I could do that. I've been meaning to attend a 'mobile mondays' event. Also maybe it will help me get my ideas together for an App of the year session at SOTM. That said... there may be a more mobile-obsessed OSMer who could do a better job on this panel (If so, please also get in touch with me about helping run the App of the year session!)

Re: [Talk-GB] Gaping hole in New Forest District
Thanks for the replies... As the replies suggest that there is no evidence at all of a special status for this area I will just remove it from the New Forest District admin relation. If some evidence turns up it's easy enough to add it, with a note of explanation!
