Dataset containing the public rights of way of Surrey

The council of Surrey provides a web page about open data for its public rights of way. At the bottom of that web page, there are two "Files available to download". One of these is labelled "OpenData files for rights of way in Surrey" that allows you to be able to download a zip file that has an OGC GeoPackage file that has the details of their public rights of way. There is another link that allows you to download the Surrey Public Rights of Way Open Data Guidance (PDF). The Council also provides information about public rights of way on an online map. It may be that their map uses more up-to-date information.

An authority's Definitive Map is the authoritative source of their rights of way. The details of the public rights of way network contained in an authority's data are for information only, and are an interpretation of the Definitive Map, not the Definitive Map itself, and should not be relied on for determining the position or alignment of any public right of way. For legal purposes, an authority's data does not replace their Definitive Map. And changes may have been made to the Definitive Map that are not included in their data. The authority's data contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right 2024. Attempting to view this data with more detail than 1:10000 may produce an inaccurate rendering of the route of a public right of way.

This web page indicates that the OGC GeoPackage file is made available by the council of Surrey under Open Government Licence v3.0 and OS OpenData. So it's possible for you to use this data provided you give the attribution that the data has been provided by the council of Surrey.

This web site also provides data about the rights of way of Surrey in KML format, in GPX format, in CSV format and in GeoJSON format.
