I had cause to go to Leicester A&E on Saturday. It was renewed in April
(Google Earth suggests there was a big building project), and the map
has not been updated, and so it's not clear on OSM where the drop-off
is, or which is the associated multi-storey. The road I think it is, is
part not-marked-as-such and part non-existent. There's also a separate
Children's A&E entrance. Given the nature of these facilities, and the
terrible Leicester 1-way system, it would be very good to have the map
be extremely clear on these points!

Can someone local look into the issue, please?

Thanks :-)

Gerv

Re: [Talk-GB] British National Grid coordinates in JOSM

2017-10-22 Thread Stuart Reynolds 
I imagine so. When working in PostGIS, coordinates are Lon/Lat so that it maps 
into an (x,y) format. Since JOSM  displays Lat/Lon this rather sounds like the 
reverse in order to preserve the presentation format.

Agree it's confusing though.

Although thanks for the tip - will now go and set mine likewise

Stuart

the way latitude is referenced before longitude, usually?  I doubt this can be 
changed in JOSM but wondered what others know?  It is rather confusing.
