Wayfaring google maps generator
By Martin English | February 22, 2006
Found via an article on the radar.oreilly.com site that talks about a google maps generator:
find this Wayfaring map of Veronica Mars locations. I may make a pilgrimage when I’m in San Diego for ETech. I won’t visit the Jack Bauer 24 map of “Day 5″ locations. These came via the great Google Maps Mania blog, and it’s interesting to see both made via Wayfaring.
There are some problems with non US locations (for example, the standard resolution on maps.google.com is far too coarse for most Australian locations), but here’s a very quick example. Note that I used Docklands in Melbourne, rather than the more famous MCG, because even the photo resolution for the MCG area is just too poor to recognise it – drill down on the Docklands waypoint to see what I mean.
PS for latitude & longitude for Australian locations, use the Geoscience Australia site.
