Hi Andy and mappamercia I've delved into this some more and it appears that the Geopark is a collection of pre-existing sites so mapping them as a relation shouldn't be too difficult. However the list of sites is published on the geopark website <https://blackcountrygeopark.dudley.gov.uk/sites-to-see/>with a copyright claim so presumably we need to get explicit permission to use the list.(blackcountrygeop...@dudley.gov.uk). @Andy do you feel like writing a nice diplomatic email to them?. I'll take a look at the UNESCO resources to see if they have a copyright free list. Assuming we get a list that's useable we could create a multipolygon for all the existing parks, nature reserves that are included but there are a number of sites that might be nodes - so how to include them?.
Proposed tagging heritage=1 heritage:operator=UNESCO operator= Black Country Geopark boundary=protected_area protect_class=3;98 protection_class= Global Geopark start_date=2020-07-10 name= Black Country UNESCO Global Geopark website=https://blackcountrygeopark.dudley.gov.uk/bcg Interesting project for us to complete. Pity they have a google map to show the extent of the geopark Regards Brian On Mon, Jul 13, 2020 at 11:18 AM Brian Prangle <bpran...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Andy > > Great news that this has been achieved after the failure several years > ago.
