Hi,
Had a quick look at https://opencanalmap.uk/about/ particularly the
Canal & River Trust license link at the bottom, it clearly states
3.1 This licence does not permit the use of: .........3.1.4Data for or
in connection with or for the direct or indirect benefit of any
Commercial Purpose; and
so I think that the data does not meet OSM license requirements
particularly Commercial purposes.
However canoeing data does seem to be something that OSM should work with.

For some time I did wonder why this information is not available on
OSM (or at least not complete)
Have you seen this project:
https://opencanalmap.uk/about/
One thing that puzzles me is fact that this open data is merged with
google maps. Wouldn't be easier to have it on OSM?
Cheers,

I was in holiday in North Wales last week and mapped the biggest
remaining gap, east from Aberdaron:
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=13!52.8079!-4.6498
That leaves three smaller gaps around the central Cardigan Bay
coastline, between Barmouth and Borth:
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=15!52.6483!-4.0907
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=14!52.4981!-4.0189
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=15!52.5799!-3.9411
plus one short one in South Wales near Gowerton:
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=15!51.6472!-4.0787
Fixing these will mean not only that the WCP is complete in OSM, but
also, as far as I can tell, that we have full coverage of National
Trails in England & Wales. So if anyone's going on holiday to West
Wales, or the Gower, please do map the missing bits and we'll be
complete.
cheers
Richard

By 'collect some relevant info' I mean 'document your findings
from asking
questions on Talk lists and poking round the wiki'. Before
constructing any
grand new project pages, I would add a section to a relevant UK
page. This
_could_ spin off into a new page later, or it might provoke the
response
of, "but this is documented here on .... page", or people might
join in.
Either way, everyone wins.
A search on
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?search=canoe and
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?search=kayak throws up some
pages. The https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dcanoe
caught my
eye as I didn't know that canoe routes were signed/plotted.
My best experience with the wiki comes from writing
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_the_United_Kingdom
By writing up the situation in the UK and working-in-the-open on a
personal
project to locate wind farms, I have found other people who were also
interested, and it has led (partially) to the solar quarterly project.
The OSMWiki is organised in places, chaotic in other places, and
frustrating in many.....but it is *ours*. I appeal to all UK
Mappers to
make it a good place to be.

Interesting. There must be some waterways fans around here
somewhere. I
can see some pages like
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Whitewater_Maps
which
focus on one aspect of canoeing, and some countries appear to
have marked
routes.
As a UK Mapper you could add to
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_waterways
and collect
some info relevant to UK canoeists.

Hello all
I've started to map some features useful (I hope) to
canoeists such as
myself.
Eg, https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/73814496
(Irthlingborough
Lock)
Eg, https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/73815104
(bottom right)
However, there seems to be quite a lack of objects on the
wiki that are
suitable. (Full disclosure: I'm an occasional, rather
inexpert mapper.)
Is this the place to discuss?
Edward
