Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] new contributor coming to coventry

[Rob Nickerson]

There is one strip that runs straight through the city centre that is even
older. It was taken prior to Millennium Place/Whittle Arches so is from
very early 2000's. Annoyingly that area has changed quite a bit now.

[Talk-gb-westmidlands] West mids energy pipelines

[Andy Robinson]

While having a clear up in my office I found the two schematic energy maps
I'd mislaid for some years. They date from late 90's so are a little out of
date now but being in copyright all I can do is relay some basic info for
the West Midlands in case anyone spots markers at field boundaries and wants
to chase them across our patch.

Oil:
1. 10-inch while oils pipeline running from Kingsbury terminal to
Nottingham. It may run via East Midlands airport but that's unclear from the
map
2. 10/12/14-inch white oils pipeline to Stanlow on the Wirral to Buncefield
and passes through Uttoxeter and Kingsbury . I assume the diameter varies
depending on the distance from the pumping stations
3. 10-inch aviation fuel Kingsbury to Buncefield
4. 14-inch white oils pipeline from Fawley (Southampton) to Seisdon Staffs,
(I think its marked as "Pumping Station" on OSM). This line goes via Astwood
5. 12-inch white oils from Astwood via Birmingham Airport to the Bromford
terminal
6. A line links Seisdon, Staffs with the Bromford terminal.
7. 14/16-inch Milford Haven to Manchester (Partington) via Kingsbury (Might
go through Seisdon too)

Natural Gas:
1. 12-inch along the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal towpath From Kingsbury
terminal to Fort Dunlop (Not sure if this means Bromford terminal or
separate).
2. Churchover (Warks) to Wormington (Glous) (Pair of pipelines)
3. 900mm dia Churchover to Newbold Pacey (Warks) - Completed 1999.( I picked
this up from other sources)
4. Two lines northwest  out of Alrewas heading to Merseyside. One in the
opposite direction that connects to the main pipeline running between Bacton
and Churchover. Connection is possibly just in Leicestershire. Another from
Alrewas to Peterborough via Leicester ish.

Oxygen:
1. 3-inch - Wolverhampton to West Bromwich
1. 12-inch  - Wolverhampton to West Bromwich

Government
1. The only one I know of runs from Avonmouth to Backford/Ince and probably
runs in the vicinity of Seisdon through our patch. 

Cheers
Andy

Welcome, Florian. I'm also in Coventry. I'm rubbish at making it to 
meets, but if we had more of them in Coventry I'd probably show up...


As Rob says, the Bing imagery for Coventry and the surrounding areas is 
pretty old. From the state of various building projects it appears to be 
from July/August 2007. It does seem pretty well-aligned around here 
though, not like some places.

Hi Florian,

Good to hear from you. I live in Coventry and am happy to help you 
where I can. There's plenty of villages in the surrounding area that 
have just the roads mapped. One word of warning - watch out for Bing 
Imagery, some of it is very old now. Looking forward to Microsoft 
updating their aerial map tiles!

Hi,

I'm Florian, french OSM contributor since 2009.
I'd like to introduce myself to the local community because I'm
moving from Paris to Coventry in october because of my work.

I map wherever I go with a Garmin Etrex 20. I like to map entire
small villages and accessibility is my favorite topic : I want a
map available also for disabled people.

In France I worked with the french association Jaccede
 to import such data. I also already
organised some mapping parties, most of them for collecting
accessibility's data.

I'm also a founding member of the french OSM association
, you can see me in the top banner, with
the pink shirt : https://www.facebook.com/osmfr

I will take part of the "Mappa Mercia" project with pleasure :)

Waitin' to meet you at the next IRL,

Cheers

Welcome Florian, I live in Redditch, on the south side of Birmingham, like you
I'm particularly interested in access issues. Come along to the next social,
I've not been to one before so you won't be the only new face. Jonathan

Hi Florian,

Good to hear from you. I live in Coventry and am happy to help you where I
can. There's plenty of villages in the surrounding area that have just the
roads mapped. One word of warning - watch out for Bing Imagery, some of it
is very old now. Looking forward to Microsoft updating their aerial map
