You can trace over a new popular edition map, and get a GPX file out. We're thinking it'll be useful for OpenStreetmap, and looking at where old features used to be on Google Earth, but I'm sure that there'll be more uses we've never thought of!

The full text of the licence is at http://www.npemap.org.uk/tileLicence.html. Cheers, Dominic.

Currently we are collecting data on npemap.org.uk separately from FreeThePostcode, since we have slightly different aims and quality standards. We will be working to integrate them at later date. (However, that said, we have imported the FTP data into our database so that it can be displayed on our maps). Cheers, Dominic. Hello,
