A few days ago I received a flyer for "Royal Mail pinpoint" (http://www.royalmail.com/customer-service/pinpoint-positional-data-capture?campaignid=pinpoint-redirect) and now there's a BBC article about it as well: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-18883772
It seems to be an attempt to build up more proprietary data, presumably postcode-linked. I'm thinking of writing an article for my village newsletter, explaining about this and about OSM and about open postcode databases, and asking residents to send me their postcodes. Is there some established material for basing such an article on? If not, I'm happy to put mine up for a starter; it seems like the kind of thing that could be useful in many (or any) areas. Or is there any good reason not to do this? __John _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
