+Renegade Knight Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 (edited) Check Markwells FAQ. He covers it pretty well. You should find a link in the FAQ pinned to the top of the getting started forum. In that thread are links to hsi FAQ's. Edited January 27, 2005 by Renegade Knight Quote Link to comment

+Cardinal Red Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 Here are two varieties of Terraserver that I like. Only good for U.S.A. addresses I think. terraserver.microsoft.com terraserver.com Quote Link to comment
+Shoebox Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 This also will take an address and will print a map and the long/lat. http://www.maporama.com/share/ Quote Link to comment
