Updating the Fissures and the Study Areas

Starting with updated shapefiles exported from the ArcGIS Fissures project:

• Project the shapefile to WGS 84
• Convert to json using tool in ArcTools
• Then convert the json feature to geojson at http://ogre.adc4gis.com/
• Copy converted text to notepad and save as .json
• Replace file in data folder

Don't forget to add the new pdfs and pngs to the assests folder.
