Meridian covers the countryside - but the data is derived at lower
resolution than in urban area, and some small roads are missing.<br>

"Instead, Ordnance Survey will in May launch VectorMap District, which
will include midscale data and replaces the 1:25,000 and 1:50,000
originally proposed in the consultation document but, grough can reveal,
will not have footpaths and other detail vital to walkers, mountain bikers
and other outdoor enthusiasts. "
Does that mean there's nothing at all for countryside users in the OS data
being released? Or does Meridian have it?
Disappointing if there's no countryside data.
