Hi Folks,

 

Definitely worth a follow especially if you have an interest in informal 
tracks/paths/pads and maybe even historical routes that don’t appear on the 
ground. I certainly don’t agree with all their statements (especially …. Good 
coverage of all trails (including closed or illegal ones) is essential for some 
mapping applications, such as firefighting and SAR.) but its also interesting 
that its now coming up as a major issue for US National Parks and reserves 
managers. In Tasmania its been known as an issue since the early 1990’s

 

I think lots of their issues will require close cooperation with the map 
renderers to be in any way effective.

 

Cheers - Phil

Looks like something that we should be following with interest?

 

Thanks
