How the data is made
The ConvoyMeet parking map is built on open data. We take information from the sources listed below, check it, remove duplicates, organise, combine and supplement it — for example with the names of the nearest settlements. The data in ConvoyMeet is therefore modified compared with the original. Reports, ratings and other information provided by users are kept separately from this database.
