Dear All,

I've been asked to add two entries under European freshwater bodies to C19.

These are:

Ijsselmeer

Min lat:           52.2729
Max lat:  53.2302
Min long: 4.9841
Max Long : 6.0234

Markermeer

Min lat:   52.2040
Max lat:   52.7511
Min long:  4.9528
Max long:  5.6812

Note that the bounding boxes are the lat/lon minima and maxima of the automatically created minimum bounding rectangle from the polygon geometry and in this case they are particularly bad with the box for Ijsselmeer virtually enclosing Markermeer.  If needed, we have polygon geometries available as shape files on request.  There is still a plan to expose these polygons as WxS service bindings through the Vocabulary Server at some stage in the future.

If there are any comments of objections to these changes then please let me know.

Cheers, Roy.
