A few other things: - In practice we have relatively little mapped, so identifying 'hot-spot' LSOAs quickly would be very useful. I just had a browse around and found a few with around 50 FIT installations around the village of Selston (Ashfield District). I haven't got them all, but am pleased to have added 125 quickly. I still only managed to find 32 in one LSOA when the fit installation count is 51: I suspect this is related to imagery date, rather than me missing obvious ones. The 50 installation threshold is a pretty high percentage of properties and represents good bang for buck. - For the same reason sortable listings would be nice (also true on Robert's various pages). - Cornwall has a large number (17k+), finding hotspots in a big county is very useful. - From a QA viewpoint a count of location=roof or generator:location=roof might be useful as well. All the FIT installs are likely to be of this type.
