Hi folks, First off, great to be back on the mailing list and to see a very active, committed community alive and kicking
I've started mapping townlands in SW Donegal - and while I went at it with all guns blazing... it's damn hard work! I've encountered a few strange occurrence last-night on my maps where the one townland is spilt across 2 dis-joined areas Examples: Cappagh townland (OSM): http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4139615#map=16/54.6334/-8.6459 Cappagh townland (OSI 25"): http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,558685,876576,7,9 I shouldn't use the OSI link but I can't find a method for linking to an area on the TCD sheets You'll see that that small townlands of Cappagh and the bordering townland of Croaghlin are marked as "part of ..." the larger townlands of the same name just off to the West For now, I have simply created a seperate relation / townland for each section and named them the same, which OSM seems to be handling OK... but Nominatim will only see one instance it appears. However, I believe that to do this correctly, I should use a master relation or somehow merge the boundaries of each townland section into one relation Has anyone encountered similar to this? It seems to be common in the area I'm mapping in SW Donegal Any advice?
