I suspect that it depends on region, but in my experience the Ordnance Survey field boundary data as printed on their Explorer is based on actual boundaries some considerable time in the past. That doesn't mean they don't have some other more accurate data in a format not readily reproduced on a printed map - maps such as this one: http://maps.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/NottsCC.InteractiveMapping.Web.Internet/?e=461177&n=360114&mpp=160&layers=SEA.PLA.FP.BR.RB.BOAT&hLayer=&hField=&hValue= suggest that they might. In areas where there's complete public access (Open Access Land) or substantial public access (lots of paths and roads) or very large fields with straight edges it might be feasible to add field boundary data without too much effort, but failing that it's "do your own aerial survey" or actual surveying on the ground (taking bearings from known points). Maybe that's a job for this winter... _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
