Hi timdine,
I am looking at some structures (a radio tower at 70.4914528, -148.6994692 for example) you placed on an "island" in the Beaufort Sea near Prudhoe Bay. However, none of the imagery I used shows any island or any structures. Can you tell me where your data for this place came from?

I've gone through the imagery sources I would have used to make this (I believe it was bing) and it looks like they've painted over the area with the expectation that it is just water. The location you're looking at on the map is Northstar Island. A description of it can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northstar_Island

Thank you,
I checked the Wikipedia article and, assuming it has the correct coordinates, I added a name tag and some others to the invisible island. Those coords, by the way, were slightly displaced from the island but I left it located where you had it.Also changed the name of the heliport to match the name of the island. It had been tagged Seal Island Heliport.
