+Carbon Hunter Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I have found a few sites that are useful when researching the placement of caches in our region. Please add your links as and when you find them. And I hope these encourage new caches in this amazing part of the world too. Online guide to information on Near and Middle East: http://www.etana.org/abzu/abzu-processquer...A&sort=auth Salt domes of Central Oman: http://www.ged.rwth-aachen.de/Ww/projects/.../saltdomes.html Fossil sites in the Abu Dhabi region: http://www.adias-uae.com/fossils/Contents.html#anchor207015 Petroglyps in the UAE (some with GPS co-ordinates): http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal...=1&SRETRY=0 Please add more - and place caches near some of these Quote
+me N u Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I found these sites for Saudi Arabia (we haven't started exploring fully yet, but dip in when we are in the area) http://www.satelliteviews.net/saudiarabia.htm http://www.traveljournals.net/explore/saud...ations/s/6.html http://www.splendidarabia.com/ http://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/201004/ http://www.outintheblue.com/desert_caves_of_saudi_arabia.htm Quote
+cincol Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Unfortunately for Qatar there are very limited resources available on the 'Net. The best resource that I have come across is parked in my parking bay and requires me at the wheel with my GPSr!!! Apart from that I have a few extremely knowledgable geologists [at al] who I also rely on for expert knowledge of various places. On the plus dide, Qatar is not very big so it is easy to explore the entire country. Quote
