Indeed. I wouldn't use Oxford as an example. I *definitely* wouldn't
look at Cambridge where one individual went off on his own. Still unsure
why it's being tolerated.
I disagree with Warin. Pointing out pitfalls to avoid is as useful as
recommendations to follow.

I don't think UK uni tagging is yet consistent across towns, but the
wiki's advice looks broadly ok imho!

> The University of Northampton is opening a new campus very soon
between between Bedford Road and New South Bridge Road. They would
like to get a detailed campus map onto OSM as soon as possible,
ideally by August 1. I haven't looked but I'm assuming this would have
to be a ground survey as it is all new buildings so won't be on
satellite (though maybe some building footprints might be), and in any
case that wouldn't get down to the level of access doors, or building
occupiers. If copyright permission can be obtained, I'm guessing they
may have plans that could serve part of the job.
> They would be open to employing someone to do the surveying,
especially as it has a short timescale. I can't really do it as it's
too far from home to do repeated trips or fit it into my current
schedule, otherwise I'd have jumped at it (I worked with the contact
doing Cambridge University maps, and I'm sending this with her
permission).
