Thanks to Geofolio for an opportunity to explore your area and generate loads of information automatically.

As it says on their website:

Define an area of interest anywhere in the world, and we'll automagically create thematic factsheets containing interactive maps, charts, written overviews, and statistical summaries – all based on open geodata.


I had a play of course. I went to North Norfolk, where colleagues took part in 2 days of coastal fieldwork earlier in the week. What would the site tell me about this location?


Here's the report that was generated... 

It was a tipoff via Richard Allaway.

This has great potential for generating secondary data about locations.
