wes0778 Posted February 7, 2010 #1 Posted February 7, 2010 A little bit ago someone posted a link to a site where you can enter an address then see an actual picture of that address. I thought I bookmarked it, but I must not have. I have tried to search for the thread, but to no avail. HELP please!!!
KeithR Posted February 7, 2010 #2 Posted February 7, 2010 Are you talking about google maps ? Keith http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&tab=wl
StarRider07 Posted February 7, 2010 #4 Posted February 7, 2010 streetveiw by google That would be the new Google Earth. I have it and I can see my house, street view and can pan 360 degrees. Really cool
Renne Posted February 7, 2010 #5 Posted February 7, 2010 Google Earth streams the world over wired and wireless networks enabling users to virtually go anywhere on the planet and see places in photographic detail. This is not like any map you have ever seen. This is a 3D model of the real world, based on real satellite images combined with maps, guides to restaurants, hotels, entertainment, businesses and more. You can zoom from space to street level instantly and then pan or jump from place to place, city to city, even country to country. Get Google Earth. Put the world in perspective.

Venturous Randy Posted February 7, 2010 #6 Posted February 7, 2010 I have at least six pictures across the front of my property and I live on a side street in a town of about 60K people. Google Earth street version will blow you away. It is also really neat to look at some of the ride areas you have been on and where you may want to go in the future. Another neat thing about Google Earth is on many of the interstates, there is real time speed indicated. Evidently there are sensors that transmit speed and is relayed to the system. RandyA
Owen Posted February 7, 2010 #7 Posted February 7, 2010 www.bing.com is also new and works very well. As you zoom the map it shifts to a street view.

For street level views; Google Maps But I think you want the Aerial/street View(Edit: I meant Birds Eye.. duh ) from Bing Maps. This will give you a CLOSE aerial shot.

Condor Posted February 8, 2010 #9 Posted February 8, 2010 I've used Google Maps from time to time when buying or taking a check just to see who or what I'm dealing with. I received one check for payment written on a check without any personal ID preprinted on it. The name and address were hand written in the top corner. I did the search and found the address was a vacant lot on a street that I wouldn't want to be on after sunset. Tore the check up and round filed it....
camos Posted February 8, 2010 #10 Posted February 8, 2010 For street level views; Google Maps But I think you want the Aerial/Street View from Bing Maps. This will give you a CLOSE aerial shot. The Google maps pix are better than Bing map pix, at least, they are newer. The Bing pix of my house are 2-3 years old while the Google pix are from last summer. The Google close-up view of my house caught me bending over my bike with my butt in the air, fortunately, in the shadows of the portico. With these eye-in-the-sky Peeping Toms, sunbathing on the decks in less than decent attire is probably not advisable.
