Abstract

Mid Sussex District Council Polling Stations. Point data showing the location and distribution of electoral polling stations for the Mid Sussex District Council area. The Council defines a polling station as the unit created by a ballot box, Presiding Officer & polling staff. More than one polling station can be assigned to a single venue or location. For this reason the data (although flat file in practice) contains a many to one relationship between polling stations and venues. Where multiple polling stations have been assigned to the same venue, then they will share the same grid reference in addition to address. A Derived Data Exemption has been granted by the Ordnance Survey in respect of this data and it can accordingly be used under the terms of the Open Government Licence v3.0. Attribute fields included: 1. STATNUM = Mid Sussex DC polling station number. 2.STATNAME = Polling station name. 3. MSERCODE = Mid Sussex DC Electoral Registration code. 4. PARENTVENU = Is venue location to multiple polling stations? 5. VENUE = Polling station location. 6. STREET = Street name. 7. TOWN = Town/Village. 8. POSTCODE = Postcode.
