Maps

This may be old news, but Google Maps now have a rather neat arial photos feature. It's quite neat that it can show photographic data at any scale, rather than most sites that only show it at the highest zoom factors.

As usual, the Irish data is incomplete, but unlike other sites that have the photographs come to an abrupt halt, it has lower-res satellite images as a backup where detailed photos are not available.

And, as usual, the drag-and-drop navigation is perfect.

pretty cool. Photos are old, bit probably more recent than the OSI have.

Well, they've got the M1 in the satellite coverage, which makes them fairly recent. The airal photos are probably a little older.
