Sorry Dominic, I hadn’t noticed until now that I hadn’t linked to the source… but you’ve just done it for me

Hi,

I’d like to link to this snippet of information, but I can’t find the original source of the NI postcode data you’ve used (the licence page is much more general). Could you include a reference to the original/official source of the data?

Thanks!

@Kieran I didn’t go as far as you. I didn’t convert the OSI coordinates to WGS84 lat/lng pairs. Partly cause I’m lazy, partly… well no mostly cause It was late and I couldn’t be bothered

@Kate Yes I used to, but not anymore.

@Teddy Interesting…

Hi Jamie, really like your work. If you get a moment, we would love to talk to you about a project we are working on for VisitBritain, which involves adapting streetview.
Just email me if you get a moment. Many thanks

Hi,

Sorry to post this here coz it’s irrelevant. But do you run the spread-shirt ‘crapola’ store? It re-directed me here when I tried to send email.

If so can you email me? I have a question.

Thanks

Hi, I’ve put together a walkthrough describing how I built a UK postcode -> lat/long mapping from the OS and NISRA data, which might be of interest:

I’m wondering whether you used the same tools to generate your data from the NISRA dataset?
