HS2 changes made. The routes now sit under 4 relations as follows: 1986960 - HS2 Phase 1 - London to West Midlands (No changes - Route as per Hybrid Bill) 6748946 - HS2 Phase 2a - West Midlands to Crewe (Jan 2016 preferred route) 6775224 - HS2 Phase 2b - Crewe to Manchester (Nov 2016 preferred

Re: [Talk-GB] Ideas for quarterly projects

It would be good to improve the road names. I feel it is easier to do the survey that is needed to weed out the rather odd 'errors' that pepper the OS Locator when the days are longer. Cheers, Chris (chillly) On 7 December 2016 12:37:52 GMT+00:00, Martyn Evans wrote:

Re: [Talk-GB] Ideas for quarterly projects

How about streets and their names ? According to the ITO OSM analysis, at 24/11/2016, compared to OS Locator, there were 17,687 missing major roads. The UK is 97.8% complete, only 16 out of 408 areas are 100% complete, and in the last month only 68 were added. The ITO tool is available to

Re: [Talk-GB] HS2 phase 2a preferred route

I've got the Nov 16 shape files for 2b but haven’t looked at them yet. I would expect them to be the same alignments as shown on the Nov 16 plans. What they didn’t release (at least not separately) are the station and maintenance yard land take polygons. Should get to taking a look before the

Re: [Talk-GB] Ideas for quarterly projects

Nice ideas. My thoughts: * GLAMs seems a well-defined, well-scoped and accessible task, I like it! * Shops - no, IMHO. I've said this before, but a one-off push to update a high street's shops is unhelpful in my experience it leaves rapidly outdated data thereafter. Shops data needs local

Re: [Talk-GB] HS2 phase 2a preferred route

I would say don't plot it if the route's not at all certain. You might even meet mapping vandalism if you laid down routes in Sheffield: it's an extremely touchy subject there. We don't know if it's going to take a city centre route or spur from the Don Valley route yet so unless things change the

Re: [Talk-GB] Ideas for quarterly projects

I'd vote for the pubs one, spurred on by the poor dataset that maths team used to find the pub crawl: it missed about 10 pubs near me, all long established. Now if they'd used OSM for the dataset and the mapping... Regards, *Paul* On 6 December 2016 at 19:32, Andy Mabbett
