Sorry I seem to have put a cat amongst the pigeons
with my query about the
UK not being included in Wiki Loves Monuments.
The discussion is certainly worth
having.
Following these discussions I took at look at the EH
Spatial Data page (
http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/professional/archives-and-collections/nm…
).
I presume the database format which is causing problems is ESRI?
After a bit more digging I found the technical instructions for this
format at
http://www.esri.com/library/whitepapers/pdfs/shapefile.pdf but
it is way beyond my database abilities. Would someone at Village pump
(technical) be able to convert it into anything useful or easy to use?
Yes, that looks like progress. Technical matters tend to be the long
suit among Wikimedians.
