TERRASERVER

Would you like to see an aerial view of your backyard, or other interesting places around the world? The Microsoft TerraServer site provides easy access to aerial image data supplied by the US Geological Survey (USGS) and Russian satellite imagery from SPIN-2, a joint venture of SOVINFORMSPUTNIK and two US-based companies. You can use TerraServer to search for imagery by typing a specific place name, clicking on the world coverage map, using "Advanced Find" to search by latitude and longitude, or by selecting from TerraServer's list of Famous Places. TerraServer has excellent coverage of the USA, as well as coverage of European locations, spots in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, South America and Australia. Visit some of these points of interest today: Alcatraz, The Statue of Liberty, The Astrodome and other stadiums, Shuttle Launch Pads at Kennedy Space Center, Disney World, and much more.
