Thanks George. Very useful resource. 

Wouldn't it be a nice candidate for a case study at
https://www.qgis.org/en/site/about/case_studies/index.html ? 

We could include 2-3 nice screenshots or examples from the data set or 
some result of analysis. 

Would this be possible to do such a case study? We could take your
announcement and enhance it a bit and include some graphics. 

Thanks for your reply, 

Andreas
