Hi Group, I just discovered a new toy on the web called GoogleEarth.This is pretty amazing and scary if you think about it. Many of the High population areas in the world are shown in high resolution which allows for zooming in with great detail. You have to down load the program and it works best with a high speed connection. Go to www.googleearth.com and down load the free version. Just for fun, I decided to look up the DMC factory Near belfast and got pretty lucky on the first try. I just zoomed in on a cluster of white roofed buildings and much to my surprise there was the test track next to the buildings. The DMC factory and Track is located at these coordinates. 54 Deg 32' 53.81" N 6 Deg 00'52.72" W It is interesting to see how the facory is nestled in a residential area. The mapping in this program is a compilation of satillite and airial photography gathered from various sourses. Many of the images are 3 to 5 years old NOT REAL TIME . It is neat to look up where one lives from the perspective of space, it's like flying over the countryside without an airplane when you zoom in and tilt the view. Have fun traveling the world.
