Clark's Download of the Week - USAPhotoMaps

[Clark Gilbert]

Here's what to do to make a new map.

Go here and do "Search Terraserver" (upper left corner) for a location. Next click on the aerial location of the place you want. Next click the Info button. Then go into USAphotomaps and do File-->New Map File... In the Lat Lon boxes enter the info for the corresponding "square" you want. Click "OK" (remember to name your map!)

Next you will need to download the map by pressing the F button(this could possibly take very long on a slow internet connection!).

Use the arrow keys to scroll around, and the - or+ to zoom out or in. Every gray square is a non-downloaded part of the area, just scroll to that area and hit F. If you do this enough you can eventually load a whole city, or driving directions to something.

Note: I havent tried entering the upper left N and the lower right W to get the whole picture that terraserver will show.

To make the big maps you'll need to download BigJpeg 2.4 from the developers website that I posted above. Just read the directions and you should be able to figure it out.
