[Talk-GB] Footpaths - search for the missing ones
Hi Just posted a "challenge" to Loomio for anyone who is interested. It's a bit beyond me so thought I'd post it here. Basically we have point data of historic footpaths (some 300k points) and I think it would be amazing to compare this to OSM to see if we can find more footpaths to map. Obviously some will be long gone due to 100 years of urban sprawl, but I'm hopeful we can still find some missing paths. https://www.loomio.org/d/pviAOkGR/challenge-footpaths Thanks, *Rob* ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

Hi I'm probably missing something. As we have current data on prowmaps.co.uk, will using such old data have any value/accuracy? DaveF.

Hi Dave, Two elements: - This is GB wide. Prowmaps has a lot now but I think so areas are still missing. - Not all footpaths are registered and with a 2026 deadline the race is now on to register old footpaths before they are lost forever.
