Is there a place on a wiki to place pictures that can be examined to learn to recognize some of the local structures? A catalog that shows how different things appear in different places? I have had similar questions. I had a pic and the round honeycomb looking things were identified as casava plants growing in bunches in Liberia. Is there a logical place on one of the wikis, a sort of image catalog, where I could add this pic and mark it with "Casava plant, Liberia, resolution of image = x"? I was editing in "#479 Tharparkar Drought, Sindh, Pakistan", and some of this stuff could have been on the moon. I just have no context to figure out the shapes of houses, what wells look like (just like houses?) and so on. A catalog of the structure types one might find in, for example, the deserts of Pakistan might be helpful. We could me mapping in Mongolia and I am also not going to know what a yurt looks like from above. Same thing. I went to the wiki and did a search, for example, on Pakistan and got back, as you might expect, the page on Pakistan. This page does not show me, however, how the different types of houses there may appear in imagery. I can, of course, start something, and will. I just wanted to see if there are suggestions from you all first. thanx - ray > On Tue, Nov 4, 2014 at 8:41 AM, Warren Roberts <gisteac...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > > Does anyone have an idea if these are walls for building (without > > roof) .. there are many and in Sierra Leone.
