Subject: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Birmingham Connected royalty free mapping

 

Hello all,

Following the ongoing work putting up the totems around Birmingham City
Centre, I have chased the project manager for more information about what
data they have captured.

Currently the majority of the project is run by Centro, the maps data is
being used for many of the altered bus route maps centro are producing.
There is also some work about the retail shopping in the City Centre.

In terms of getting to see what has been captured, how it will be
maintained, etc. I am hoping to learn more with a meeting in a months time.
Then I will have a better idea of what is captured, what can be done with
it, find out if it will be released, etc. If you have any questions you want
me to ask please let me know.

It is obviously a bit daft given the quality of OpenStreetMap data, however
I am interested to try and use the data if it will help OSM, I will keep you
informed.

Apparently there are anoutehr 80 totems to go up on the inner irng road -
once in place I wonder which map will have them on first?

Cheers,

Stuart

One thing we could do with is a list of the totems and their coordinates -
as open data.
