Hi Roger,

Area names I think is a no brainer, unacceptable to use, unless there is a polygon of coordinates out there that defines the areas. Of course the area could be mentioned in the predictors comments, or even a non prediction information field could be added.

I have started giving some though to this. I'm guessing three classes of predictions:

circles
lines or a series of line segments
polygons
