+archaeor Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 (edited) Well, here I am at work, and need to download an aerial, but I've discovered that all of the places I've used in the past want money now!! Mapquest doesn't offer them anymore, TerraServer and Topozone both want money now. (2 months ago they didn't). What gives?? Anyway, does anyone know where to get and download aerial photos, preferably for free?? Thanks, Rick EDIT: THANKS, I FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR . . . MODERATOR CAN DELETE THIS THREAD.

+Renegade Knight Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 the mapmaker function of Lostoutdoors.com does the job. We used it this week for a photo... Quote Link to comment

OuttaHand Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 I'll second the opinion on Lost Outdoors I use it all the time -- every cache. You need to be a little careful about how you enter the coordinates, though. Be sure to enter them without the "N", "S", "E", or "W" in front of the numbers. Also--leave off leading zeroes. For example--- N12 34.567 W012 34.567 would be entered as.... 12 34.567 -12 34.567 Also -- for the marker color select Orange as it shows up best. Quote Link to comment

+edscott Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 always use lostoutdoors.com and never use a GPS. The photos are all you need. Quote Link to comment
