Analysing you the reader….

So I like Google Analytics, as it makes me feel like these pages are being read by someone.   What always surprises me is why people come here, I wonder what it tells me about the world…

Do people really still use the old HP DesignJet 500?  How do people not know how to export attribute tables to Excel in ArcGIS?   That Feature Construction toolbar must piss people off, yes?!

This months (12th March – 11th April) top pages are very similar to last months:

Apologies for absence…

I’ve just come back from an extended vacation/holiday in Canada, please accept my apologies for non-postings and tweets.  Normal (ish) service will resume as soon as I’ve figured out what time it is….

Planning Portal Outbuildings mini-guide

I follow a few blogs and one of them is the Planning Portal director’s blog.  For those who don’t know the Planning Portal is a central website/gov IT project that allows for the submission of Planning applications electronically to your local authority whilst also holding lots of information and news relating to planning.   I personally think it’s a great site/IT project that shows that government IT projects can work.

Anyway they’ve released a new mini-guide to help, interested parties figure ou what exactly they can be build under ‘Permitted Development’ (i.e. no Planning Permission required) in the UK.

The announcing blog post can be found here
and
the link to the miniguide is found here.

The main page for the Planning Portal is this http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/
