For those of you who have tried out the stunning Google Earth software, I’ve written up a blog giving co-ordinates for some of our most discussed places here on TDG (and others that interest me). Feel free to add comments adding to or editing what I have there so far.
I should mention also that Google Earth is not the only software out there for doing this – NASA and the open source community have had a program called Worldwind out for some time now, which is very similar in function. While it has less detail in the city areas than Google Earth, some of the rural areas do seem to have a little more detail. Plus I find the interface for moving around a lot better. Be warned though – it is around 180mb to download.
