Yeah, I give up. Then curiousity got the better of me to see how it works

Opera (my default browser): long time to load and small framed.

Go to Google Maps.
Place your start point at Haverfordwest and the end point somewhere else.
Click Get Directions.
Then drag the end point around the map and you'll see that practically the
entire Pembrokeshire coastline is within 20 miles of it, by road. It's the
ideal hub from a road network point of view.

I looked at:

This zooms from approx 1:250k down through 1:25000 through street plans
1:1000 ?? showing individual properties.

They could easily write a set of T&Cs about how anything uploaded to their
dataset becomes their property, their copyright, and theirs to do with as
they wish.
There are plenty of organisations that do this sort of thing already.

Went for a walk in Weardale yesterday. Set off from Burnhope Reservoir with
the intention of walking the five Nuttalls. Abandoned at Harewood Common.
The whole walk upto that point had been just one big bog and the way forward
didn't look any better. Can't think that the Lakes themselves will be any

Update from Keswick
The road to Borrowdale was open this morning ( Saturday) but it has
started to rain again and water levels in Borrowdale are rising !
Keswick is in 2 parts at present as the main bridge over the Greta (
A5271) towards High Hill,Crosthwaite and Portinscale is closed to ALL

I wonder where and at what scale Garmin got the vector contours and
water features data for the topo UK maps? (The roads, as we know, came
from Navteq not from OSGB).

Re: Need USB cable for Garmin

The Garmin cable is mini-USB, the Nokia is micro-USB.
Mini USB was the original standard, and is commonly used on cameras and
MP3 players etc.
But micro USB is a new standard, and becoming common on mobile phones.
Most of the phone manufacturers are now standardizing on micro-USB for
charging.

That would be my observation too that my garmin cable is different
from my nokia cable which one is the more standard.

I am not so sure that the OS are bothered I know this is a bit old but
some of the heights of scottish hills where off as much as 100m and
instead of accepting peoples corrections they ignored them for 40
years till they did this century's main survey.

The OS would never do that as the map would then be seemed to be in
the public domain and as the OS jealously guard their copyrights I
think this is a non starter.
A much better example is OSM where its open source and if you
contribute to thjs you are doing an invaluable service to other users.
