It is much better to look at this as a positive rather than a negative! What *IS* needed is a successful way of using third party data sets rather than continually merging now quite complex data sets into the one unmanageable whole. I would hope to see the information available as an overlay to osm in the same way it overlays google. Then perhaps all the material that is simply missing or incorrect on google can be replaced with much more accurate local views :) Certainly the paths and access to the navigable sections of canals and rivers around here are currently totally blank on the google version. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
