I was lent 65 first-edition 1:500 OS maps of Ipswich dating back to 1882 a couple of days ago which I have now photographed and uploaded to Flickr. I was surprised to find that there was no Flickr group of out-of-copyright OS maps so I created it.
The rules I have created says that all maps should be geo-coded, that the photos should be released CCBYSA and that the contributor agrees that the images can also be used to derive mapping for OSM (to cover use under ODBL where there derivation from CCBYSA is less certain. The group is here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1192...@n24/pool/ I have also just rectified one map using Warper. Four control points seemed to do the job very well. http://warper.geothings.net/maps/preview/1205 If anyone has any suggestions about adjusting the rules for the group or wants to be an admin then please let me know.
