Latest HS2 announcement today means that there will be a lot of discussion<br>
about the route (generally and specific locations) over the coming years.<br>
Currently the new route plans [2] have the usual OS copyright notice. What<br>
we need is the bare bones of the proposed infrastructure released under the<br>
open government licence. Any ideas or avenues for achieving that? I'm not<br>
suggesting we rush to put the proposed route into OSM but it would be nice<br>
to be able to do so when the time is ripe.<br></blockquote></div></div></blockquote><div><br>You beat me to it! I was about the do pretty much the same post. Agreed - we should add the route.<br><br>This map (<a href="http://www.umapper.com/maps/view/id/58620/" target="_blank">http://www.umapper.com/maps/view/id/58620/</a>)
has been produced by myself and others and is in my view 100% free of
OS copyright. I suggest we check it for currency and then get on with
it. You will notice that this map is already included in the HS2 article
on Wikipedia. Zoom in and there is detail of the station layout etc.<br>
<br>Regarding OS copyright, the OS do not claim derived copyright any
more for 3rd party content that is displayed on an OS map just so long
as they do not present that sort of feature on their mapping. As such
any copyright infringement would be with the government, not the OS in
my view.<br><br><br>Regards,<br><br><br>Peter<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
