Covered features

This documentation offers practical guidance for mapping geothermal power plants.

Power generation facilities are industrial sites, typically closed to the public and posing serious risks such as electrical hazards, heat, exposure to chemicals, or death.
Information gathering on-site should always be done safely and in full compliance with local regulations and warning signs. You must never enter restricted or hazardous areas, and this documentation does not encourage or expect you to trespass fences or gates under any circumstances.
