Description: Stephan H just raised the fact that a scale bar is missing from our maps.

To explain why it would be useful: He was validating some Dutch plot data. Where a centroid represents the location of a plot, the scale would allow you to determine if the reason a centroid(plot) is in the sea, is because it was obscured or not. Note Dutch vegetation plot and species occurrence locations get obscured to 5x5 km squares.

Note currently we cannot show polygons/plots on maps, work addressed in PF-2454.

An example scale bar from Google Maps attached. ]]>
