<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Many Thanks<br><br>I'll use the code without the county council letters as this is what is in the name tag in JOSM. I'll debate as to whether to split the path number according to the last number as this would require quite a bit of work and I've still not mapped all the paths in the parish yet!<br><br>Dudley<br><br><br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2013 15:01:52 +0000<br>> From: barrycorneliusuk@gmail.com<br>> To: dudleyibbett@hotmail.com<br>> CC: talk-gb@openstreetmap.org<br>> Subject: Re: [Talk-GB] prow_ref<br>> <br>> > Is it going to be OK for me to use this map to put the prow_ref numbers into<br>> > OSM?

Often a council will have this data in an ESRI Shape File <br>> or MapInfo files. So far I have seen data from 52 councils. Whenever I <br>> get new data from a council, I update the wiki page:<br>> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_local_councils<br>> All the data I receive from councils is released with an Open licence.<br>> <br>> I convert this data into KML and GeoJSON. One reason for doing this is <br>> that I use the GeoJSON on my web site in order to display public rights of <br>> way on maps from the Ordnance Survey, OpenStreetMap, Google or Bing. <br>> This works seamlessly across council boundaries.<br>> <br>> As far as Derbyshire is concerned, I've obtained some MapInfo files. <br>> These have been released with the Ordnance Survey OpenData licence:<br>> http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/docs/licences/os-opendata-licence.pdf<br>> <br>> The data I obtained from Derbyshire is available from:<br>> http://www.rowmaps.com/datasets/DY/<br>> <br>> I have converted the MapInfo files into KML:<br>> http://www.rowmaps.com/kmls/DY/<br>> and released the KML with the Ordnance Survey OpenData licence:<br>> <br>> In particular, from the file:<br>> http://www.rowmaps.com/kmls/DY/original.kml<br>> you can get:<br>> <SimpleData name="RouteCode">NE18/19/1</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="ParentRouteCode">NE18/19</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="ParishCode">NE18</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="PROW_Number">19</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="LinkNo">1</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="PROW_District">North-East Derbyshire</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="Parish">Sutton cum Duckmanton</SimpleData><br>> <SimpleData name="PROW_Status">Footpath</SimpleData><br>> <br>> I would recommend tagging with either:<br>> Sutton cum Duckmanton FP 19<br>> or:<br>> NE18/19/1<br>> as this is what is used on Derbyshire's online map.<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Barry Cornelius<br>> http://www.northeastraces.com/<br>> http://www.thehs2.com/<br>> http://www.rowmaps.com/<br>> http://www.oxonpaths.com/<br>> http://www.barrycornelius.com/<br></div> </div></body>
