I Spy!

Postby Scorpiоn » Sat Apr 12, 2003 10:10 pm

Where can I get satellite view of places?  Specifically, Washington DC?  I'm looking for an area around the Iwo Jima Victory Monument - Pentagon - White House.

Just search Google for webcams.  There's tons of them.

Just be carefull. I'm sure if you search for something that vague, you will get zillions of listings for webcams of other things ::) :-/

Erm, not to be snotty or sassy, but I said "satellite", or better put aerial.

Last time I used www.mapquest.com   you could pull up an aerial photograph (zoomable & moveable) of the map you're currently searching...try it  ;)

Thanks Brett, I'm slowly getting somewhere with that.  But one more thing, does anyone have a clue what the Lat/Long of the Iwo Jima Victory Monument is?

PS: Whoever can get it gets a cookie! ;D

From what I hear, you better be careful about searching for satellite shots of Washington on your P.C. or you're likey to have the FBI, CIA et al breaking your door in........lol ;D

I got this picture of downtown Toronto form Blade's suggested site. This shrunk down image doesn't do the actual image justice. Outstanding high-res quality satellite pictures.

Check out these pics.
