Geology+Layer+Collaboration

Geology and Environmental Science Layer
Please sign up in the table below to coordinate the collection of placemarks for at least one topic.
 * Coordinators should identify what information is needed for each placemark in their topic area, and should make placemarks for a minimum of 10 sites in that topic. POST .kmz files to be included in the table, please.
 * a Template and instructions can be found below
 * Anyone may add placemarks to ANY topic area by sending them to the topic coordinator via email (see the wiki homepage).

__Please view before starting__ Here are some directions for deciphering the code in the template. I've highlighted the text where you can substitute your information for the placeholder text.
 * GE GPC Placemark Template Directions -**
 * GE GPC Placemark Template** -
 * This template can be used if you don't want to create your own. All you have to do is to insert your text for the placeholder text and also insert your image for the placeholder image. The placemark is programmed to expand to hold your text. However, be concise. Placemarks are there to interest people in the topic. If you have a lot of information you want to share, you might think about linking to an outside source. You could also create a page on this wiki and link to that page.
