That being said, I tested 5 different co-ords and some seem to be out/hard to
recognise bbq's.

Using the Qld govt boundaries information it's possible to work out
where streets are, although some streets have been consumed and the
boundary information doesn't reflect this.
Does anyone know how roads drawn from this information should be tagged?
I just took another look at the transformation tool
http://www.actpla.act.gov.au/__data/assets/file/0016/5209/geomin32.exe
and the spreadsheet is giving out the AMG lat long not MGA.
I entered the lat long that the tool states is MGA into g'sat imagery and
presto, mark straight on top of bbq!

There is a pro version that is more or less identical to the free
version of our POI application for mobile phones, people want
something more if they think it's got more perceived value, than
something given away as freeware, which I find ironically funny.
Any way there is 50 free copies being
The problem is there is not one spreadsheet. The downloadable tool is rough
enough for these types of POI. High accuracy between AMG to MGA only can be
done with tools that use grid transformation (a bit table of values, NT file),
these are also available as a free download, but would then

John,
How do you mean consumed?
Is this related to the comment you made on my diary entry at

I've also added my own tagging examples at a new page at

helps.

Some land owners have taken over the land when it's probably still
crown land. For example:

Ok, so now a quick description of how you did this.

Brendan has set up a WMS server of property boundaries, and things
that aren't boudnaries show up as black areas and it's possible to
guess which is roads depending how straight the gaps are between

Given there's a finite set of criteria (ten of them) that sounds good.
