Ah, sorry - I misunderstood your question. <div>I didn't bother rendering the whole country with these because everyone said how awful and useless Merridian2 was, so I just wanted to see how it compared to other things.</div>

I didn't render a whole map using Meridian2, but made a couple of examples to satisfy my curiosity here:<br>

They give a bit of a feel for what the data looks like.<br>

Thanks, Graham. I think I had seen that when it was first publicized. But somehow there's no substitute for being able, in the middle of an editing session, to say 'I wonder what this area/road/river/lake looks like in Meridian 2' and switch to that layer to see whether it adds any value. I don't want to belittle the work of people who carried out 'proof of concept' work like this when OpenData was first published, but it seems like either the data was deemed to be of no use or there wasn't the impetus to turn prototypes into an operational tool with national coverage.<div>
