This is the index page for the ZERG90 map for Los Angeles County in California. (the map can be found at - https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1_w7H8a8E4m1L6MxvKJgBKUAljvo&usp=sharing ) - We are making several changes. We have moved the index page here. We have created a new countywide FIRE layer on a new map / 'copy of' map. We have created a PARKS layer. We changed all the map markers for the LAFD and LA County FD. We need to come up with a MISC layer. We will probably merge the ANF layer into the FIRE layer. Essentially we will deactivate the old primary map; and we will create a new bolder and more beautiful map. As if that was possible. - 11/22/2025
===============================
changed map markers for LA City FD and LA County FD - city fd now shows new stars for 'engine only' stations and 'axes' for LF only stations - (flames for stations with ladder and engine - maybe) - county is now black (stars for engine only stations - flames for stations with engines and ladders ) - gonna cleanup this index - all the info from this map index and the HQ markers is going to be moved to the zerg90 website - where it rightfully belongs = maybe after breakfast we can get to that - 11/21/2025 - (11/22/2025 - getting to it now)
