Hi, A mapper has recently added a long mountain bike route to OSM and there has been a difference of opinions in the changeset comments https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/87757341 .So I thought I'd share here to try to achieve some community consensus.
Personally I'm concerned that it appears to be an undiscussed import without explicit copyright owner permission, possibly containing OS-derived data. It goes against the general principle that we only map what's on the ground, potentially opening the floodgates for all kinds of such unmarked routes. The route is tagged as ncn despite not being part of the National Cycle Network and as a mountain bike route is largely unsuitable for general bicycle routing. Does anybody have any further thoughts? I'll make the original mapper aware of this discussion. Kind regards, Adam
