Re: [Talk-GB] Geospatial Commission to release UPRN/ UPSN identifiers under Open Government Licence

2020-04-02 Thread RobJN
Hi Jez,

It's all a bit unclear but from what I've read it sounds like there will be
a release of the UPRN / UPSN identifiers and their associated geometries
("coordinates" in some text). I see no reference to address data being part
of the release.

What it will mean is that there will be an easy way to geolocate any
datasets that have these identifiers. Currently you have to do this based on
postcode or address (and we know that addresses can be fuzzy things).

It's probably worth at least one of us writing to them to confirm exactly
what will be released.

Thank you
Rob

Re: [Talk-GB] TfL Cycling Infrastructure Database - conflation

Sounds great.

I have used Ilya's OSM Conflate tool for point data in the past. That might
be a good option and could be adapted to show the TfL photos. Probably best
to split by region to keep the task manageable.

BTW. the lockdown means more people are looking at ways to give back. There
was an article about crowdsourcing to digitise handwritten rain / weather
reports. A big success. I wonder if we can find a good OSM project to
promote. Would need to be simple and hard to make a mistake. Need not be TfL
data related.

Best regards
Rob
