It's not too long. Oh, and it's in php. Apologies to the haters. :-) Tim --- On Mon, 26/4/10, Ed Loach <[email protected]> wrote: From: Ed Loach <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [Talk-GB] OS Locator - using in JOSM To: "'Tim François'" <[email protected]> Date: Monday, 26 April, 2010, 8:30 Hi Tim The wiki page all seems to be clear until the bit where you “use custom script to compare data”. Are you going to document the script? Or is it mentioned elsewhere and I’m missing it? I’m sort of tempted to try doing the same around me in Essex. Thanks Ed From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim François Sent: 25 April 2010 20:51 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Talk-GB] OS Locator - using in JOSM All, I've just had a go hacking the OSLocator data too for here in Bath. The results look promising: some streets are missing, some streets are spelt incorrectly, whilst others have a ref=* tag, but no name=* tag. What I've done doesn't automatically detect these subtleties of course: it just compares names in OS Locator with names of ways in OSM for the same area, and spits out the names which don't appear in OSM. The results are at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bath/OSLocator_Comparison Hope this will prove useful.

Conversely, some streets named in StreetView are absent from OS >> Locator. This has been on my todo list since the data came out. I'm hoping to get to it next weekend during the hack weekend but if anyone else gets to it first I'll do something else! -- Brian _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
