There is also OSNI open data which is released under the UK Open Government
Licence and is reusable in OSM , see UK OFL in the OSM Wiki.

Add the imagery to josm thus.

 

1.       Preferences imagery , press +WMS bottom on  right and paste this in

 

https://gisservices.spatialni.gov.uk/arcgisc/services/OpenData/OSNIOpenData_
50KBoundaries/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities
<https://gisservices.spatialni.gov.uk/arcgisc/services/OpenData/OSNIOpenData
_50KBoundaries/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS>
&service=WMS

 

Press 3. Get Layers , data appears below to confirm connector working, 

 

Option 4 appears as a tick box “Store WMS endpoint only” check that,

 

7. name it OSNI

 

OK and OK.

 

You now have new imagery in your dropdown menu in JOSM and you will be asked
to select a single layer like Townlands or Wards 2012 after you select OSNI
imagery. 

 

You may need to fiddle with opacity. 

 


Credit “OSNI Open Data” as you use it in edits.
