Who's hot and who's not

Keep those hot things under cover, especially if you are in the UK where hot-mapping is all the rage. Hot-mapping is thermal imaging houses - usually by flying an aeroplane with imaging equipment - to figure who's hot and who's not. Haringey, a town near London has now got its own hot-map. [via BLDGBLOG] The map, I must say, is just ugly. Shouldn't it be possible to export the data into a KML format, suitable for google earth or World Wind?

From the Haringey website:

[In] a poorly insulated property, up to 1 out of every 3 pounds spent on heating is being wasted

Holy pounds!
