Glad I'm not going mad. Does it say anything useful or interesting
that the "GPS trace" is a few metres away from the boundary as marked
on the map? (Sorry if this has been answered recently: there was
extensive discussion on alignment not long ago, but too technical for
me to follow easily.)
That "county boundary GPS traces" has been there about 10 years or so at
a guess? According to OSM's GPS traces, my first mapping in Rutland was
around 10 years ago and I think those boundaries were there then. I
can't see that it ever added any value; it just serves to confuse people
like me trying to use GPS traces to help align other imagery.
I don't remember it being discussed recently, though it has cropped up
before (maybe 8-10 years ago?).
Best Regards,
Andy
