There have been grumbles (to put it politely) about NaPTAN data, though I have found most of the stops in Hull to be pretty good. Loading large areas that go unchecked will only make our map as good as Google (who seem to have loaded NaPTAN with precious little correction) - we should be aiming much higher than that. The process of checking adds value beyond the NaPTAN stops, so let's encourage people to buy-in and own it locally.
