+Malpas Wanderer Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Is there an easy way to get the coordinate data sets (polygon) of each of the UK National Parks preferably in a format compatible with GSAK. Quote Link to comment
+Graculus Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 You can download such data from the Natural England website here. You need to register (free). The datasets are either in MapInfo or ESRI Shapefile format. I doubt these will work with GSAK (but I've never used GSAK for mapping). I use an online conversion site to convert the Shapefile format to KML so I can use them in Google Earth. This is the site I use. It is free but I think has a limit of about 30Mb for uploads. I've just looked at the National Park overlay and it's only a few Mb's. The site can convert to many different formats.
