hi Steve,
Agreed, but it is not always possible to do that at present with the
data in there. TBH, some of it is out of date (I suspect you already
know that ;) ) and some of the data cannot be geo-located as we don't
have a postcode or easting / northing to reference against -
especially where privately owned moorings are concerned.

To put it in context, some of the data in there at present most likely
dates back to when the site first launched and it seemed more about
getting at least 'some' data in there. Obviously, things have
progressed since then and attributes that help in terms of geo-
locating services is becoming more important. To this end, BW are
currently working to get the data cleansed and either removed /
updated or added with regards to moorings.

With regards to your suggestion, I guess ordering from the 'head' of
the waterway would be most logical for boaters?

thanks,
paul

Trying to get accurate data is always a pain (I know its been a major
pain for Nick too!) and it's never going to be 100% right.

As for ordering - I would have suggested starting from the same end as
Bridge 1 - that way its easy to find things in guidebooks etc.
