southpaw Report post Posted July 30, 2005 hey all....there was a post about 2 months ago about a website where you can get actual satellite photos anywhere as long as you have coordinates...i was hoping someone can remember the website and toss it this way...I am getting tired of the same topo maps, I think this would be something to try out..

peckl1 Report post Posted July 31, 2005 I just started using a site called GoogleEarth.com It is really good for scouting roads. The satelite pictures are anywhere from 1 to 3 years old. A lot of the roads in 36A are not on the topo maps. But with this I can see not only looking straight down, I can also tilt the page and see terrain changes. Check it out.

az4life Report post Posted July 31, 2005 Google earth is really cool. Options for view angle, Zoom, showing roads, and the flyover is awesome. Give it a try! Just make sure you have lots of time to play with it cause you will lose a half of a day when you get hooked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arizona Griz Report post Posted August 2, 2005 Googleearth is a great site but what I have noticed is that the majority of the areas in the state (shades of green on the screen, example would be along the rim by Payson) will not focus very clearly. Its like not of the photo imagery is coming in. Now there is some areas (brown in color) where you can easily see a vehicle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diamondbackaz Report post Posted August 2, 2005 I have been using terra server for over a year now, but not anymore, that virtual earth is far better. You can use your mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
