[Talk-GB] Power Lines

[Graham Jones]

This time to the list too...

I know what you mean, but there are quite a few woods around there that I
would like to add, because they are handy navigational aids - they are
difficult to survey properly, and tracing off landsat is so difficult with
my eyes!

Having shapefiles with the geometry already defined seems worth using, but I
was only thinking of using it for areas where I have a pretty good idea what
is there.

I didn't want to get too far though in case someone else is already starting
to do something more 'bulk' like the power lines that just appeared
suddenly.

Graham.
