Find your house

Recommended Posts

Found this website a few years ago, truly one of the greatest ever. You're a little restricted by when the last survey of the area you're looking at was taken (where we're living now was just trees during the last satellite pass here) but there are definitely some cool places to check out. I've found old DZs, old homes, beaches I used to hang out at, the whole shebang...

We've got the same thing in colour over here B|.

If I put in my postal (zip) code it circles my house for me. You'll forgive me not doing so on line though. Here's the neighbourhood though: http://www.multimap.com/map/photo.cgi?client=public&x=360500&y=179000&width=700&height=410&scale=5000&out.x=12&out.y=10

edit: and this is where I used to live... much nicer out in the country side: http://www.multimap.com/map/photo.cgi?client=public&x=501715&y=414424&scale=10000&width=700&height=410&multimap.x=576&multimap.y=257

found my house:D

I was viewing a topo map made back in 2002. I located my job and was able to zoom close enough in and see my truck parked in the lot!!

I put in my address, and they showed me the wrong house. It's even the wrong street. But it does show a great picture of where I walk my dogs around the lake every morning.

i knew about that website a few years ago, and of course the first thing i got a picture of was my DZ. then whenever i would come back from jumping, i would make a little mark where i had landed that day. yeah i was a geek but it looks kinda cool. i stopped doing it around 70 jumps i think.
