[Talk-GB] Ordnance Survey

[Muki Haklay]

Regarding the OS datasets, here is a suggestion: use it is to update the 
name tag and fill in the missing gaps in attributes. For most of the 
datasets, the quality of the positional information (that's the 
geometry) is lower than that of OSM and it will make much more sense 
just to identify where there are overlaps and a road can be recognised 
quite well, so the attributes can be transferred...
Cheers
Muki
