There are some interesting comments from OS about why they didn't / couldn't include footpath / Public Rights of Way (PRoW) data in any of the OS OpenData products in the comments at http://blog.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/2010/04/os-opendata-goes-live/ Apparently OS regards the PRoW data as containing IP belonging to the local authorities (who maintain the definitive maps), and so were unable to release them as part of OpenData. There is an agreement that allows OS to include PRoW data in their Explorer and Landranger Maps. -- Robert Whittaker _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
