Dear Richard & Yolande Your comments make interesting reading. I suspect D&C didn't know that later printers were not revised consistently. Of course as long...
This group is probably a little too erudite for such a trivial question, but I've googled around and can't find any reference, so thought I'd try the experts...
I'm half way through reading Richard Oliver's article about the Old Series sheetlines in Scotland (in the current edition of Sheetlines), and wonder whether...
... Are you asking about the people behind http://www.npemap.org.uk/? I'm not part of that team, but I know from personal experience that it is not too...
I don't think that I've heard of this misprint before, but I doubt that it makes the map so valuable that it is worth enquiring about buying villas in the...

Not exactly a 'misprint' but more recent.. The first printings of the Landranger series 'omitted' a small bit of the UK between sheets 67 and 75. It is now...
I suspect that Lez means by 'Cassini' the firm which is also known as 'Timeline'; the mapping is the Old Series, on a multiplicity of origins, rather than the...
It woulds have been a good idea if this firm, once it came up with a name, stuck to it - and 'Timeline' seems less liable to confusion than 'Cassini', but they...

I think I've mentioned this one before but it bears repeating: an early edition (sorry! - I butchered the map and have the lost the exact edition reference)...
You will find Alan's old 'Chestnut' on Landranger 177 B/*/*/* edition of 1984, and possibly on other editions. Following his earlier tip off the map extract is...
Hello Is it possible to buy Explorer maps unfolded - or landrangers come to that? Many thanks Adrian James [Non-text portions of this message have been...
Not any more. Best is simply to rip off the cover from one (*carefully*) and flatten it out. If you're really bothered you can iron (yes, iron) one flat, but...
Thanks Richard. Appreciated. I've just got into buying old maps after involvement in openstreetmap.org, and so have been picking up out of copyright material....
I don't know if everyone gets the same demo when they download it. My copy was titled as Snowdonia National Park - which narrowed it down somewhat. Still...
I have another question about this sort of sofware! I have always fancied getting good photographic software which allows you to 'fly' over the scenery, but it...
Thank you very much David - a perfect answer from my point of view. To bring it back on topic, your notes have enabled me to follow the flight sim on my OS...
Try http://local.live.com/ The mapping isn't special but the photography seems to be based on the same images as Getmapping and Multimap but at better...
Hello David, Most geographic information systems will allow you to created and fly-through rendered digital elevation models. A good low price GIS that allows...
Some months ago I happened to be near the new Bath Spa visitor complex - the building of which long delayed opening caused much publicity - when I happened to...
... … ... These systems are already widely available. For 'consumer' mapping at 50k and 25k scales, companies such as Anquet and Memory Map already sell OS ...
I have a book published in 2000 with innumerable UK 1" OS map references. Is there a Web site that lets me input a reference, and then show me the map centered...
