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
