[talk-au] Vic hospital locations
I've been looking over the data.australia.gov.au site some more, so far there is a kml file for vic hospitals, as a result most of the useful information is in html type formating and seems to include a lot of disclaimers about the information being best effort/use at own risk... 00clampToGround145.06,-37.8688,0 Alexandra District Hospital I can code something up to convert this if I have to, but has anyone already converted something similar? ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Probably just covering their back - because people looking for a hospital do tend to be "at risk" if the data's off... ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Operating mines had lat and long Mineral processing plants didn't any of these things should be big enough to see on satellite imagery with a rough idea of where to start looking -- You have an unusual equipment for success.
