But for things like an AAA battery in a wood, just plonk them down
No one will ever see them.

I would have to agree on most of that. Even road traffic is difficult to detect unless you know it's there. With the Regent Bus being a possible exception of course.

I did write the LiveMap class to support a specified limited region on startup and ignore anything outside so its very easy to have it live up a focues part of the map.
