Finding Terminal 5

Don’t expect the Ordnance Survey or any of the other professional mappers to help you in finding Terminal 5 at Heathrow.

Yep, you have to rely on Open Street Map. See how the other’s handle it on the opengeodata blog.

   The OSM map data has received some attention today (largely as a result of my blog entry) and there’s now even more detail visible.

   The most current OSM map of terminal 5 can be viewed here:

   Thanks Etienne, I thought that would be the case so I made the map in my post clickable to the latest OSM one.

   The link on the image is broken, the ampersands in the query string have been encoded twice.
