Is this something that could be done over a series of evenings and a couple of 
afternoons or is it a larger task?

 

Bing has some images, not sure how old they are.

Subject: [Talk-GB] University of Northampton new campus - mapper required

 

The University of Northampton is opening a new campus very soon between between 
Bedford Road and New South Bridge Road. They would like to get a detailed 
campus map onto OSM as soon as possible, ideally by August 1. I haven't looked 
but I'm assuming this would have to be a ground survey as it is all new 
buildings so won't be on satellite (though maybe some building footprints might 
be), and in any case that wouldn't get down to the level of access doors, or 
building occupiers. If copyright permission can be obtained, I'm guessing they 
may have plans that could serve part of the job.

 

They would be open to employing someone to do the surveying, especially as it 
has a short timescale. I can't really do it as it's too far from home to do 
repeated trips or fit it into my current schedule, otherwise I'd have jumped at 
it (I worked with the contact doing Cambridge University maps, and I'm sending 
this with her permission).

 

If anyone is interested, please contact Amy Moore in their estates services 
department: amy.mo...@northampton.ac.uk

 

David
