Here's a map I made for my town. Feel free to put these on the map!

I have over 200 sirens from the Memphis Metro area marked and labeled (with icons) in a .kmz file. What would be the easiest way to get them to you without having to manually input them? Can I just email you the .kmz file?

Here's how I have them labeled:

Note: The plain dots are siren locations that are unidentifiable, and will have to be investigated manually.

Nice job.
But I noticed for the detroit ones are marked 1000T insted of 1000.
there is only one for sure we know is a 1000T (joy and trinty)

Do you know what the sirens out in lakeland are? I think they're all P-15's (i'm just going from what I can see from google maps) but i'm probably wrong. I'm heading out there later today to visit relatives for a few days so I'm planning on just walking up to a couple.

If you're assuming what model it is only from visuals, it could be either a P15 or a P10. The only way you can tell the difference is to take it apart and look at the insides. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

EL1998P71: Thanks! I got the original .kmz file for Shelby County from the EMA, but I went through the locations to find what type of siren it was.

SporadicBat: Here is a Lakeland-only view. They have all 2001s. I've confirmed this visually in-person before as well.

I've also broadened my map to include all of DeSoto County's sirens (county just South of Memphis). These I had to enter manually based on the locations of the sirens on the GIS map of the county.
