Stratford City London

Posted by netman55 on 13 September 2011 in English.

Was thinking about going up to Westfield Stratford city shopping mall which has opened today which according to some of the media is the largest in europe although commparing the blurb on their websites Bluewater still seems to hold that title by shop numbers anyway.

So I looked it up on OSM but was disappointed to find that there was almost nothing was there.

Perhaps some London non-archair mappers would be kind enough to target this area for update. Bing is no good here which in some ways shows how vulnerable OSM is if it was to lose the use of Bing.

Having read some of the commentary about the site I have decided not to go as it appears to be a bit boring and I refuse to pay to park to shop. So no GPS
traces from me then

We're already making plans for a mapping party there in the next few weeks.
