To be clear, Ian, I'm not saying this use of data is an import, as you have said and as it appears to me and others, it is / would be using the data as a "filtering process" in a workflow. As such, I'm good with that. The points I was making are that 1) data drift over time and 2) there are

What I did notice though is that some footpath shapes matched those in openstreetmap, paths through parks and nature reserves especially. I also see they've got a ©OpenStreetMap in the bottom right corner - not sure if that's always been there. On Mon, 6 Sept 2021 at 09:22, Sam Wilson wrote: >
