If there's one thing that London OSMers like adding, it's amenity=pub.<br /><br />You can extract names and locations of pubs in the OSM database, for the general area by doing a query using the XAPI service, then crop by the boundary in your GIS application of choice.<br /><br />Try: http://xapi.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/node[amenity=pub][bbox=-0.22,51.51,-0.10,51.58]<br /><br />You'll then need to convert this data from the OSM XML format into something more GISy using something like osm2shp or osm2gml - alternatively some GISes, e.g. Quantum, now have plugins that allow direct reading of OSM-format files.Olliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16101185101622046547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4407602959869119653.post-80675493610612139992010-04-08T09:26:33.963+01:002010-04-08T09:26:33.963+01:00Thanks Andy, very helpful.Thanks Andy, very helpful.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08892947404494686339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4407602959869119653.post-2389403961440523082010-04-07T16:41:41.244+01:002010-04-07T16:41:41.244+01:00google earth uses the WGS84 datum/projection http:...google earth uses the WGS84 datum/projection http://earth.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=guide.cs&guide=22373&topic=23750<br />this should be one of the default coordinate systems available in ARC. I imagine you are using NAD 1983 if the points are off by around 30 meters.
