<br><div class="gmail_quote">All,<br><br>We discussed the Land Reg INSPIRE data yesterday. Should you wish to give it a go in JOSM set up a WMS layer in the preferences/setting as follows:<br><br><a href="http://inspire.landregistry.gov.uk/inspire/ows?SERVICE=WMS&FORMATS=image%2Fpng&LAYERS=inspire%3ACP.CadastralParcel&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&TRANSPARENT=true&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&INFO_FORMAT=application%2Fvnd.ogc.gml&EXCEPTIONS=XML&_OLSALT=0.789927776902914&SRS=%7Bproj%7D&BBOX=%7Bbbox%7D&WIDTH=%7Bwidth%7D&HEIGHT=%7Bheight%7D" target="_blank">http://inspire.landregistry.gov.uk/inspire/ows?SERVICE=WMS&FORMATS=image%2Fpng&LAYERS=inspire%3ACP.CadastralParcel&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&TRANSPARENT=true&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&INFO_FORMAT=application%2Fvnd.ogc.gml&EXCEPTIONS=XML&_OLSALT=0.789927776902914&SRS={proj}&BBOX={bbox}&WIDTH={width}&HEIGHT={height}</a><br>
<br>I found it to be slightly misaligned with Bing (although that could be Bing, rather than the Ordnance Survey), but aligned perfectly with other Ordnance Survey derived data (namely Millennium Greens from the Natural England dataset). A Bing offset of 1.51; -1.37 was all that is needed in Coventry.<br>
<br>Generally the quality looks very good, however when I moved to the city centre there were lots of odd plots. Checking against historic maps, these were old plots following previous locations of roads/buildings! See attached screenshots:<br>
