My main problem is how to define what is authoritive as far as names go. As with most mappers I default to the road signs but as pointed out previously they are put up by council staff not known for their infallability. Where I am the council mapping can be accessed via their website but all the data is OS based so doesn't add anything to the sources we already have. I have also noticed name differences between the OS Streetview and Locator products. All part of the fun. Kevin
