National and state park boundaries for Victoria (from the Department
of Sustainability and Environment's Vicmap Lite package) were released
under a CC - Attribution 2.5 Australia licence earlier this year. You

I couldn't find any statement about licensing there. To clarify, my
question is not "how do I find NP boundaries" - that's easy, there are
maps on parkweb.vic.gov.au etc. My question

As others have already suggested: we need relations.
There's already proposals semi-underway here:

Yeah, it's been available for a couple of weeks now - plenty of work
for us to do. Pity there's such a large gap between Bendigo and
Geelong - that's one of my favourite areas of Victoria.

Well, because to most people a "set of lights" covers a whole

Hi all,
I notice that we have some national park boundaries, but not all.
Anyone know where they come from? Are there any usable sources of
data? I can't see that attempting to find the boundaries by
driving/walking around the park would be very fruitful.

This is exactly what I've been doing too, al
Personally, since NearMap became available, i've been placing traffic light
tags at every thick white stop line at the intersection, which means for a
standard intersection, there are 4 traffic light nodes.

Hi,
I use to tag traffic signals at the intersect of the roads, however
with NearMap I can see that for complex intersections this does not
work as well as I would like, three things I can see to do are:-
1. tag at the intersecttion of roads
2. tag at the location of the signals
3. either (1) or
On a recent trip, I twice came across roads marked "No Road". Anyone
know what this means? I rode down both of them, and was rewarded by
really interesting, very rough tracks that fortunately did connect up
with the road network again. Are they former roads, no longer publicly
maintained? How would
Have been anticipating this for a few weeks and finally it has arrived.
Nearmap imagery now covers a fair portion of Northern Victoria.

I didn't check, but based on the photo I'd do something like this:
