What it is saying is That is my thought too. I'm certainly staying within the 'spirit' of the ToU, but don't want to get stung by an over zealous lawyer! Particularly given the content of the site! > If you already have a licence to use Ordnance Survey digital data, > perhaps in conjunction with MapInfo, it may conceivably be easier to > add your datapoints/lines using that than generate overlay images and > calculate their positions for a Static Map. We do have licence, but tbh the software we use to manipulate them is less than ideal (certainly not MapInfo!), and I've actually done the code to calculate the boundary images etc. Thanks for your thoughts.
