Whilst in York, I was able to photograph some bus stops, I've done a quick comparison of the data, it seems to be the worst in terms of standards compliance so far, but seems to be quite self consistent, which is a small bonus. Why quote the above? Well, it seems that York is unaware of the existance of the StopArea principle. (At least, I couldn't find it in a quick grepping of the data). http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/NaPTAN/Local_schemes#York -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) _______________________________________________ Talk-transit mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-transit
