HI Nick, Great job. It will be a really useful tool :)
I echo Rob's request for a higher level of zoom if that is at all possible. I'd also suggest looking at some of the excluded 'urban' areas. Some of the unitary authorities and Metropolitan Boroughs (particularly in Pennine England) are more rural than you might imagine. For example Blackburn with Darwen covers much of the popular walking area of the West Pennine Moors, whilst the windswept moors of Wuthering Heights fall into the urban-sounding Metropolitan Borough of Bradford! It's great that we have this resource to add designation tags but just one warning based upon something I saw a new mapper near me do a couple of years ago. Please do not add negative access tags or delete existing access tags based on the recorded status of these paths. The recording on the definitive map of a public footpath means foot=designated, it explicitly does not mean bicycle=no, horse=no etc. There may be unrecorded rights, locals may customarily use the routes on horse or bike, there may be explicit permissive access, or a formal Cycle Track Order may have been made. We are not able to judge any of this from the PRoW datasets. Kind regards, Adam On 9 June 2018 at 14:46, Rob Nickerson <rob.j.nicker...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Nick, > > I like this.
