cool man! B) Don't you have any info on this? Seem to be a pasture, where animal grazing - could this be a clue for what kind of livestock is that? (:

Found it by accident while searching for airplanes. And now I've found something to do with it. It's an emu farm on the Aboriginal Corporation's land.

Thanks this great example CuriousJM ! Now we are over 70 placemarks with this one! As one can read on Gmaps comments it is the cattle marking on those pastures. Was planted by the local farmer some 60 years ago. It is a plantation of eucalyptus trees. Also great aerial photos there! *** Updated kmz folder attached to OP. *** Greetings and Happy New Year!

The Green Cathedral, near Almere, Netherlands.As per Wikipedia; "The Green Cathedral or De Groene Kathedraal located near Almere, the Netherlands, is an artistic planting of Lombardy poplars (Populus nigra italica) that mimics the size and shape of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame, Reims, France. The Green Cathedral is 150 m (490 ft) long and 75 m (246 ft) wide, and the mature poplar trees are about 30 m (98 ft) tall.
The work was planted by Marinus Boezem (b. 1934) on April 16, 1987, in Southern Flevoland. The land art project was installed on polder land; 178 trees were planted on a knoll, a half-metre above the surrounding area. Over the following years, some trees were replaced due to deer damage, and stone was laid in the floor to echo the cross ribs and support beams of the cathedral.
Now mature, the cathedral has become a location for weddings, funerals, meetings, and religious services of all kinds.[1] Nearby, a clearing has been made in a young beech forest so that the open space is in the shape of the same cathedral. Boezem suggests, as the poplars decline, the beech trees around the clearing will grow to create the church once more, thus ensuring a cyclical evolution of growth, decline, and growth."Coordinates: 52.323157°,5.318778° Google MapsNote: This work of art was placemarked twice in now defunct (old) GEC.

... Note: This work of art was placemarked twice in now defunct (old) GEC. And now I gonna stick the 3rd pushpin here around this functioning board of the GEC! ( : Only I will mention also Circle-forest ( Cirkelbos) on the other side of the road. If you zoom out of the exact Cathedral plantation, you will see that all the surrounding area is built up of artistically plantated forest blocks. If you also check GE / Layers / More / Parks, you will see that the forest on the North-bank of the channel is called "Cathedral Forest" (Kathedralenbos), while woodland on the South-bank is "Circle Forest". Thank you for this interesting site again CJM Master! ( ; --- Updated kmz file attached to OP.

A world map - intent or coincidence? Faint resemblance of Earth's continents also it is situated on the northern slopes of the same hills where our Italy plantation can be found, only that one is on the southern slopes. Many GE Layer markers without a mention of such "continents" plantation... This means, your "World map" is visible from the ground only from the northern valley and it can be seen upside down this way. All these make me say, this time your eyes have made tricks on you!

Is this spider coincidence or intention ? The basic shapes are given by natural formations however plantation and some dig work could help a bit... Great spotting anyhow! Until further info comes in I'll list this one as "willi1's spider" in the collection. *** Updated kmz file attached to OP.
