Hey all,
I just wanted to add a few things although I am not that active on OSM
these days.
The National Monuments Service seems to have open data available that
includes ringforts and similar structures. I am not sure about the
licence compatibility and mass importing and all that This could be a
Hi Keith,
There were some already mapped in my area and so I started mapping some
myself here,
http://histosm.org/#11/-9.1571/53.827/0/
HistOSM gives a clearer picture of these kinds of things, the more
historical things get, the less relevant they are for OSM though.
I wonder is it possible to
I agree that the civil parish borders should go through the townland's e.g.
(Ballyboleen and Magheraeagh etc.)
If you look at the historic OSI 6 inch 1837 map, you can see the borders
going through the townlands.

That map belongs to OSI so I would say that is

Sorry, wrong link in last email
I have come across this before where a civil parish border runs through a
townland.

Sorry for the long email, I will try to put this into a wiki or something.
Please check over my list and see if you can identify a spelling that
should not be overwritten.
More importantly, any suggestions on the above text are also a good idea.

Thanks for the OSM OSI comparison map, this is great for showing up
mistakes in the townland boundaries and I even found a missing townland or
two.
This umap seems pretty cool too. I notice that many townlands without
logainm tags are because of the typos. Fixing those should allow the script
to
Hi Colm,
Thanks for your addition, every little helps!
I agree with you that we must not assume that the mistake is always in the
OSM entry. Often the entry in OSM is of greater value, even if it does not
match any official names, for example, I have added the local name of a
townland "Guesdian"
in place names.

Hi all,
I found a lot of typos in townland names in county Mayo and i presume it is
similar in other counties. As of 12.01.2017, About 4.3% of townlands in
Mayo have a mistake in the spelling. That is roughly 130 townland names
just for Mayo! I think that is something important we can correct now

Hi all,
I'm fairly new to OSM, I map under the username OscarBrownbread.
I have been mapping Castlebar and Co. Mayo. Recently I have been looking
more at townlands
I have found many spelling errors in townland names (approx 10) in my
locality. Cross referencing them with the loganim data
14 matches
