[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Street tagging Problem
Hi everyone How would you tag a street that is one way for all traffic in one direction with a contraflow bus lane going in the other direction? The street is a normal two lane single carriageway. Came across this in Walsall - Caldmore Lane as it leads off from Bradford Street Regards Brian ___ Talk-gb-westmidlands mailing list Talk-gb-westmidlands@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb-westmidlands

Re: [Talk-GB] Crowdsourced boats to map the seas : BBC Article - video
Hi all - I went and asked them about data licencing. They're not going the open-data route - essentially personal use only, so they can reserve the ability to charge for some uses. For interest, here's the description of the European grant which helped them develop their crowdsourcing: http://www.gsa.europa.eu/coastal-surveying-depths-egnos-enhance-charts (NB it's not just a pure research grant but a commercial development thing.)
