Have some fun! Find your house..

[RednBlack]

Not a contest, just something to play with. Find your own house! I dare you to try and find Area 51. (Hint: Go to Rachel, NV. Go south) http://terraserver-usa.com/addressim...?t=1&s=10&alon

Pretty weird huh? We use those with Fire Department mapping a lot, our 911 dispath center does it automatically with every inbound call.

God I was like no way, it even showed the fence that I just built a couple summer's ago, and the small(3ft high) trees I planted. Every time I see these, they amaze me.

Pretty weird also. My dad must have been at work(his delivery van is gone), I must have been at school(my Z isn't there), and we must not have boughten me sister's car yet. The time frame is early winter, our big tree has no leaves, and the grass is mostly brown with some faded green areas(in summer its all green). This is amazing and weird at the same time, that they photo this much of America, and some ordinary person can zoom in, with enough detail to see a lot.

Huh, assuming they don't edit vehicles out, and the timeframe is the same, I am going to look at my school and see if I can find my Z since that is where I would be, given that my dad is at work. Edit, pic was on January 1st, so I wouldn't be at school. So now I am going to look at the one on September 4th. Its an aerial photo, and I can't get in close enough to tell if my car is there or not...But I found my high school, but we were obviously not in school at that time.

I use terra server alot. Especially when Im on a trip or when Im just trying to find some guys house to buy some parts off of. Hey while the subjects up did they take some of the "zoom in" away? Before 9/11 I could plainly see my truck in the driveway and even a few of the kids' toys in the yard. You can just barely see my old black truck now and no way you could make out those same toys now. Wonder if the government was responsible?

LMAO! Canada DOESNT exist on this map.. LOL. Check this. Ok so i thought i'd find my old house in Brandon here in Manitoba. Just 1 hour south of brandon, is the US border, right 5 minutes across the border is a town called Dunseith North Dakota. I have a place i used to go to all the time and have packages delivered there to save shipping hassle, So i know the area.

thought i'd put in Dunseith and then just keep scrolling up and up north untill I hit brandon. but alas, there is the US. then there is just a big line of nothing and white nothing of what is Canada.. And no this is not our snow....

Yeah I saw that back in high school, like '98, it seemed to be closer, but I'm not 100% on that.

theres probably some sort of legal thing preventing Canada to exist... maybe it'd be considered spy photos... lol.

[patgizz]

i can't get it close enough to see my house, but i can get it close enough to get my land to take up 1/4 of the picture. and the newest pic of my area is 2000. so i probably had the 71 caprice, 91 caprice, and god knows what else.

[TheProfessor]

did anyone actually try to find Area 51
i was gonna look but i have a sneeky suspicion its not there lol

[bszopi]

All of those photos were taken by the USGS (United States Geological Survey), therefore why would Canada be included?

[Rhedalert]

Too bad now I can't invade newfoundland with my 4 man army!

here's my place
