Meridian covers the countryside - but the data is derived at lower
resolution than in urban area, and some small roads are missing.

"Instead, Ordnance Survey will in May launch VectorMap District, which
will include midscale data and replaces the 1:25,000 and 1:50,000
originally proposed in the consultation document but, grough can reveal,
will not have footpaths and other detail vital to walkers, mountain bikers
and other outdoor enthusiasts. "
Does that mean there's nothing at all for countryside users in the OS data
being released? Or does Meridian have it?
Disappointing if there's no countryside data.
