In the UK, certainly large-scale Ordnance Survey maps show field boundaries.
There is some incomprehensible (to me) information about 'field parcel numbers'
at <http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/site/contact/fieldparcels.html>.
It would be great to add them to OSM but I don't think walking along the boundary
of each field with a GPS device is a practical way to do it. And high-resolution
aerial photography is unlikely to be available for rural areas. So I wonder
where the OS get their data from?
