Processing for the rest of the Britain is now underway. The arrival of a new more accurate height model will be welcome coming shortly after scientists at the recent climate change summit in Copenhagen said that earlier UN estimates for sea levels were too low. Height data is used for numerous earth studies including impact ashttp://www2.getmapping.com/News/10http://www2.getmapping.com/News/10Mon, 30 Mar 2009 12:00:00 AM GMTHartley Wintney, March 27th 2009 - Getmapping aerial imagery of Britain is providing the backdrop for a new mapping project called the People’s Map. The People's Map is a web-based mapping project, which allows users to create their own mapping online by ‘drawing’ over Getmapping aerial photography. Users simply register and map everything from roads and land use through to points of interest, using the simple online editing tools. http://www2.getmapping.com/News/9http://www2.getmapping.com/News/9Fri, 27 Feb 2009 12:00:00 AM GMT
