Daniel has begun investigating possible ways of increasing the zoom capabilities of our data overlays down the track. Unfortunately, we are currently restricted by the need to convert the available GIS-based ESRI Shape files (.shp) to make them compatible with Gmap. We are hopeful that Daniel will find a way to rectify this in the future, and greatly appreciate your feedback on this matter. Thanks again, Keir Jarvis Management - Community Rivers Hi Adam,

It provides a huge service for a very specific and focused community. The only niggly complaints I have is that all the overlay mapping data vanishes if you zoom in more than half way (just as it's starting to get close enough to be interesting) and the colours used for the markers could be better, they are harder to see than they might be when you have the satellite imagery turned on. But in general excellent work, and just needs a little polishing.
