KML files containing the public rights of way of Coventry |
|
On this web page, Nathan Case made a request under the Environmental Information Regulations for the public rights of way data of the council of Coventry. In its reply, the Council has provided a zip file that has MapInfo files that has the details of their public rights of way. The MapInfo files seem to have been created on 2nd March 2023. When I requested an update in March 2024, I was advised that "there have been no changes". An authority's Definitive Map is the authoritative source of their rights of way. The details of the public rights of way network contained in an authority's data are for information only, and are an interpretation of the Definitive Map, not the Definitive Map itself, and should not be relied on for determining the position or alignment of any public right of way. For legal purposes, an authority's data does not replace their Definitive Map. And changes may have been made to the Definitive Map that are not included in their data. The authority's data contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right 2024. Attempting to view this data with more detail than 1:10000 may produce an inaccurate rendering of the route of a public right of way. This web page indicates that MapInfo files are made available by the council of Coventry under the terms of Open Government Licence v3.0. So it's possible for you to use this data provided you give the attribution that the data has been provided by the council of Coventry. I have transformed the MapInfo files into a KML file. When producing the KML, I have used OSTN15 to transform OSGB36 to WGS64. |
