Just as good, from the BGS press release: ORDNANCE SURVEY MASTERMAP AWARD FOR BETTER MAPPING The Ordnance Survey MasterMap award is to encourage innovative and stimulating map products derived from, and composed mainly of, Ordnance Survey's MasterMap data. The award is run with the support of Ordnance Survey. Unfortunately, an award will not be made this year as it was the opinion of the judges that the entries did not fulfil all of the criteria as stated in the rules. The problem was not with the quality of the products, but they felt there was minimal or no innovative use of OS MasterMap data. -- Jonathan (Jonobennett) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
