Draw All of LHC #3

I'd really like a more detailed map of the LHC rather than just a circle. Adding in a box for the campus and smaller circles for the preaccelerators would be very nice.

Also adding a comment I received privately:

… it does bring to mind a possible "advanced" version to show more things...

Existing Accelerators

  • PS
  • SPS
  • LHC
  • Tevatron
  • DESY
  • maybe others

Future Possible Accelerators

  • FCC#1 (100km diameter)
  • FCC#2 (80km)
  • CLIC
  • ILC

I'll fork and code in the CLIC / ILC (stating that they're independent proposals). Lengths aren't confirmed so I'll put in "~50 km". Looks like this is a bit beyond my ken. I'm reading up about Leaflet but it'll take me some time to familiarise myself with this.

Anything beyond a simple circle will require GIS math for placement. Is there a PDF of the full layout?
