Hi all
First, thanks again to the MySociety devs for the extremely useful MapIt API
which we've now been using for six or nine months.
The API has a very useful "generation" feature which lets you look up the
boundaries used at previous elections which are no longer current.
I see that there is some data loaded for generation 15, which contains the
new Scottish Parliament boundaries that will be used from May 2011.
However it appears that this does not contain a copy of the generation 14
data - so if we want to have full data from May onwards, do we need to do
two queries, using generation 15 for Scottish Parliament and then generation
14 for all other boundaries? Is there a general way to determine, for any
particular postcode or area, what is the latest generation of data available
for each area type?
Presumably after May we can just omit the generation parameter and it will
return the latest data for each boundary?
Thanks
Leigh.
