Future developments
• 3-D geological models to accompany teaching set
• Extranet delivery for borehole or map scans
• Delivery of data via Web Map Services e.g. GIS maps, vocabulary data services (1:625k geology map already available for Google Earth mashups)
• Further teaching resources, e.g. seismometers (extending the School Seismology Project)
