Re: Crowdsourced venue database

Hi Andy, good stuff. Another data source that might be useful for finding
tracks globally is the heatmap data from Strava.

For example here you can clearly see Barn Elms track:
https://labs.strava.com/heatmap/#15.66/-0.23413/51.47271/bluered/run which
isn't on your site. I'm pretty sure Strava allow tracing of their data for
updating OSM so hopefully no licensing issue.
