Should
you wish to contribute data
Click
here to send in data for your
Road Safety Database. Please do run a check for possible
duplication of existing data. Prefix your data location
points with an F, M, H or A attribute, including the
road name and the monitoring direction as applicable.
IMPORTANT: please add the prevailing speed-zone limit.
A MapSource *.gdb file is the preferred medium of report
since these files are smaller than an equivalent *.gpx
file but an email describing the data specified, is
suitable for those Plug & Play owners not yet with
MapSource. Please DO NOT list Road Safety data in a
posting on the Forum. We might inadvertently overlook
it.
