[talk-ph] RFC: importing protected areas/ national parks boundaries

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

Should we add them? Why not?

I think these are the same shapefiles that Microsoft Encarta used in its
Atlas component and the same ones imported into Google Maps/Map Maker. For
instance look at the following Google Maps links:

Biak-na-Bato National Park:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=15.11853,121.087189&spn=0.082363,0.175781&z=13

Mt. Banahaw-San Cristobal National Park:
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=14.065984,121.46347&spn=0.165515,0.351562&z=12

If they used them, I don't see why we can't
