On another recommendation from the geography course, I just checked out
local.live.com. The aerial photos on
Local.Live aren’t as high in resolution as the ones used by Google, but the map
view (using Navtech) is quite detailed (better shading, mild arrows for traffic
direction, a different place-name scheme), I’d say, and the bird’s eye
perspective is especially worth a look. Here’s the bird’s eye view of SU’s
Quad—-facing south; the middle-most
building is Huntington Beard Crouse, the
place I pass the time many days.
And another view, facing westward this time, at a
full zoom. I’d include a view of our house, but you’d be able to see
how unkempt the lawn was before winter.
