Hello, I've asked the GIS team at Sutton Borough Council about using any data they have, mainly for a project I'm doing at work in partnership with the Council.
They said that ALL of their data is derived from the OS maps under the Mapping Service Agreement. They don't apparently even have their own data for the Borough and ward boundaries. According to them, the MSA means that they can only share the data with another organisation for the duration of our project. This is a bit disappointing - it means we have to get ALL of the data ourselves by hand! Does anyone have any suggestions? For example other departments in the council that might have relevant data, especially for political boundaries. Did anything come of the data that Frederik Ramm mentioned earlier this month? I find getting accurate administrative boundaries by hand a complete pain because those signs are few and far between! Looks like we'll be organising a series of Sutton mapping weekends to get the Borough finished... Kind regards, Tom _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
