Satellite View and Map of Maniago cutlery places

Post by arthas »

Hello!

This started in another thread, but I'm posting it here as it might be interesting. I'm making a Maniago map (using GoogleMaps) with all the interested cutlery-oriented places. Click here:

Maniago Cutlery Sites (SATELLITE)
Maniago Cutlery Sites (MAP)

Just click on the blue markers to see what's in there. ;-) You can zoom the satellite view and see details of Maniago.

I'll be adding others with time. If you have some to suggest, post here.

Thanks,
M.

Hi M.
I can't get the link to work on my machine. Says maps.google can not be found.

If you want to get a real birdseye view of Maniago, go to Google and type in Google Earth.
Then you can see satellite images of any place on earth or in space and you'd be surprised at how close the photos are.
Downloading the program is free and it's fun to fool around with. You can see what your state, your town or even your house look like from space. you can even tilt the images into a 3D-like effect.

enjoy. 8) 8) 8) :shock:

You 'da man, Arthas.
Good job. I enjoyed the map of the sites (AB, SKM, etc.) You don't get that list on the sattelite view.
I'm with you, Grim. I'd love to visit Maniago! 8)

You should get it on the satellite view as well: just click on the small vertical bar on the left side of the page, the left pane with indications should pop out.

Thanks for putting this together Arthas.
I've really enjoyed the satellite view of the city. It's about the closest I'll ever come to actually being there.

Arthas
In the satelite view there appear to be rivers or streams (they are white.) When zooming in, these don't appear to be water. What are they?

Dry stream beds?
