[Talk-GB] OS boundary data as background images in Potlatch orJOSM

[Colin Smale]

Jason,

I have obtained the data from the Natural England website and converted it
successfully to GPX. You can get the GPX files and the licence statement
from here:

http://csmale.dev.openstreetmap.org/national_parks/

BUT:

a) the data seems to be OGL-licensed but I am not a lawyer so I cannot say
it's ok to use as a source for OSM (but I suspect it is OK)
b) the metadata within the GPX still assumes it is from OS Open Data - I
will fix that up this weekend

So I would recommend not "importing" the GPX into OSM yet as the copyright
statement in the metadata is wrong. However you can already work with it
directly in Potlatch/JOSM if you want - I would appreciate any feedback
about the accuracy of the reprojection (does it align accurately?).
