I'm sure many of you are aware of the map of France that gives all the details of drone restrictions ....
www.geoportail.gouv.fr
It's actually an incredibly detailed map that when fully zoomed in shows individual properties, footpaths, ski lifts etc etc. so is a great resource for any kind of holiday.
I was playing with some of the options the other night and discovered a really cool feature... on the right-hand side, click the spanner icon and then select "Afficher des coordonnées" ... Now when you move your mouse over the map it will show you not only the Lat/Long but also the altitude of any point! I tested this with a few places I know well and it's exact. OK, geeky fun - but I thought I'd share.
