OS Trumped<br>
<br>
Fri, 29 Aug 2008<br>
<br>
Just returned from a pleasant day at the RGS-IBG annual conference. An<br>
event well worth attending as its mellow and covers a range of subjects.<br>
However it is largely colonised by human geographers, a strange breed.<br>
Thats not for want of the RGS trying to get physical geographers<br>
involved... Time will tell.<br>
<br>
Anyway the OS are one the of the primary (platinum?!) sponsors of the<br>
RGS (along with Land Rover and Rolex from memory). So the map of the<br>
venue, and how to get to it, prominantly displayed on the back cover of<br>
the abstracts naturally used Open Street Map data. Nice one!<br>
<br>

Nice one indeed ....<br>
