Following a post by Tom Biebach at SLN, I’ve produced a Google Earth model of Taff Ely wind farm. Download Google Earth file here. This is a high-resolution area so the quality is remarkably high. Turn on terrain (setting 2) for maximum effect!
click to enlargeThe file will be part of a teaching activity which is currently in preparation

Excellent! I have already used the flat image with groups to investigate the locational factors of windfarms. Now the image comes alive! “That’s mad that is…” (from the normally least interested pupil)
i reckon that they are a very good idea and there should be more wind farms
i think they are really good and saves money and dont really cause that much desturbance if you think about it
