Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Splitting of CIvil Parishes?

I agree that the civil parish borders should go through the townland's e.g. (Ballyboleen and Magheraeagh etc.) If you look at the historic OSI 6 inch 1837 map, you can see the borders going through the townlands. http://map.geohive.ie/mapviewer.html That map belongs to OSI so I would say that is

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Splitting of CIvil Parishes?

I have mapped CPs which cross through the middle of a townland. OSM is flexible and allows you to do that. There's nothing wrong with doing that. Yes the PlaceNamesNI site seems to match how you've mapped it in OSM, however maybe they are using some data model which isn't flexible and doesn't

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Splitting of CIvil Parishes?

You are quite correct KDDA. “Definitive” is too strong. I too have spotted errors in it, or at least differences between it and other sources. Nonetheless, it is a work of considerable authority from sound academic sources - on such a scale it is unlikely to have avoided all errors. I have

I think I may have mapped those. It was a while ago, and I had just started with boundaries. I remember being very confused. If you look at http://www.placenamesni.org/map.php and zoom in to the Drummaul area, you can see that they distinguish between

The problem with CPs is that Country boundaries were revised twice in the 19th Century. 1. Between 1830 and 1840 counties had exclaves that were removed over the course of the original OS Mapping (EG Ballymore Eustace was in Co. Dublin once) and thereby leaving fragments of baronies and

Sorry, wrong link in last email I have come across this before where a civil parish border runs through a townland. http://maps.openstreetmap.ie/oocmaps.html?zoom=16=53.73535=-9.09821=BTFFTTF On Sun, Feb 19, 2017 at 8:17 PM, Brian Tuffy wrote: > To me it looks like

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm looking at the logainm import script, and sometimes when it can't find a match, I look at the data in OSM and manually add a the logainm:ref if I can figure it out. And there's a few civil parishes which are tagged in a strange way. Look at
