Nigel,
If as you say, 'this will only happen as each SM goes through the MPP process' we may
as well give up now.

My guess is that this will only happen as each SM goes through the MPP process, I
cannot see how EH will turn the current fuzzy squiggles on aged Xeroxes (of in some
cases pre-war map bases) into meaningful polygons without revisiting the sites. That
really would be Magic!

Subject: Re: Scheduled Monuments on MAGIC
Hi,
I bet someone at the working party meeting either said something that was a tad
premature or someone miss-heard what was said. The MAGIC web side speaks (dated
last December of 'The first stage of the programme ... is complete and a significant
number of the boundaries' and 'work is ongoing to capture the remaining boundaries'.
Does this seem similar to the promised Listed Buildings Online data?

Hello all
Can anyone shed some light on this?
We have been told that at the last EH/ALGAO working party English Heritage
confirmed that the Scheduled Monument polygon layer on MAGIC would in
future be regarded by EH as the definitive areas for Scheduled Monuments.
Following on it was decided that HERs could request a digital data supply of
SM to ensure they had access to the definitive data, which I have dutifully
done! I now look on MAGIC to see that some of the SMs are still point data. I
assumed that a complete polygonised dataset would be available. How can a
"indicative point" be regarded as definitive? We are then referred back to the
descriptions for the definitive descriptions, which for the old schedulings don't
actually exist on the documentation...
