Reply:The latest version of the program is Google Earth 4.0.2722. Updated maps become available automatically. If you have better maps or aerial photos you can put them in your own copy as a layer on top of GE, but it is a bit tricky to do.





Where I live is shown really fuzzy and low resolution. It's a bit disappointing for that. I do wonder sometimes what is hiding under the fuzz.

Is it just me, or does it look like there is a "Jesus fish" on the google maps logo?

On the orange part of the logo for google maps (the "map") it looks like there is a fish in the middle of it.

Why can't you see people on Google maps?

Does anybody know if the software actively deletes images of people from Satellite images on google maps? Apart from the most crowded areas in citys there never seems to be any people anywhere.

I do remember there was a pic taken from space of a woman sunbathing topless in her back garden that was on the news a year or so ago. It was found on google earth and seen as an invasion of the womans privacy so I think that is why there are no people. Here is a link to the pic its funny!

"My Location" Problems with Google Maps - Bell HTC Touch?

I have a HTC touch from Bell Canada with unlimited data. I have the latest version of Google maps on my phone. I try to use the "My Location" feature but it tells me "Your handset doesn't seem to be compatible with My Location (Beta) feature". My friend has the same phone but from Rogers and he can get this feature to work. Does anyone know why it wont work on my phone? Do I need to change some settings or is it because Bell doesn't support that feature?

Why does Google maps not show the capital cities on their maps?

It is because Google maps are free. So if you want free stuff, you can't just expect them to show EVERYTHING. Maybe the maps have limited space, hence having not to show the capital cities. Also, the capital cities cannot be written on the maps as they might overwrite other names of places on the map or mislead people into thinking that name of the capital city is written over(say a road of building) is the capital city itself and the surrounding places are not the capital city.





Anyway, you can go to Google, pay premium prices for better viewage of the world.

When does Google retake pictures for Google Maps?

Google's maps geographical pictures are provided by a company called NAVTEQ. It is not known publicly if there is a schedule to how frequent new versions of maps are licensed for use by Google Maps.





I would guess only unless there is a geographically visible change in a particular region or newer/better resolution pictures become available.

In other words, when the photos are "free", Google will update.

Is there like a google maps for outdoors sort of like online maps like outdoor explorer ordanance survey maps?

you could try multimap, google maps, streetmap or ordnance survey websites, but they only give you a small section of the OS Map. To get a larger map you have to pay, and you can get discs with them on - again, ordnance survey do these (and paper maps of course).





I couldnt suggest this is a good idea but using, say multimap and a standard graphics package you can copy the free preview, move along to the next bit and copy that, paste them together in the graphics package tomake a larger map of course. But I wouldnt suggest that since to get the larger maps they want you to pay
Is there like a google maps for outdoors sort of like online maps like outdoor explorer ordanance survey maps?
Not sure just what "kind" of outdoor recreation you mean here. Since I camp and hike wilderness areas, I rely on topographic maps most of the time. I get some from the BLM or go to terraserver to look up features of a given area.





I also use national geographic maps for Nevada especially if I need to create a map to display on my blog.

Do aerial maps provided by Mapquest, Yahoo and Google provide blueprints for terrorists?

Just makes it too easy to plan an attack if you have a pretty detailed view of the target.
Do aerial maps provided by Mapquest, Yahoo and Google provide blueprints for terrorists?
Could they help a little? Sure. Are they vital aids? No.





Those aerial images have to be at least a year old before they are posted on the internet. They also do not allow the user to zoom in as close as the military systems like them do.





For example. I'm going to conduct a raid on a mall. I can zoom in just enough to see where the entrances are, and a few of the overhead windows. I wouldn't even know what those things were had I not been there several times already. I can't get an idea of elevation and relief, and oh, by the way, that entrance is no longer there...

They will continue to just wait until the opportunity avails itself for them to attack.

Why does Google Maps deliver different maps through the API?

I recently discovered that they show different maps through their API than they show on their website. In fact, it looks like they show older maps through their API.





You can see several screenshots here:


http://www.naffziger.net/blog/





Why does Google do this? Is it due to license restrictions from their data providers, some intentional dithering (GPS anyone), or something else? Does yahoo do the same with their maps api?
Why does Google Maps deliver different maps through the API?
One thing that is interesting is that the Satelite images are the exact same. It is possible that all updates have to go through some process before they are relased to API while the process for the updates becoming available to themselves is a much shorter process.





I have not noticed there being a difference in Yahoo Maps and Yahoo API, however I do personally like Yahoo Maps a lot better.

If I am correct, the boy uses Google Earth. Google earth is a software and you need to install it before you can use it. It gives you an aerial view of any location in the world including your own street. But the best part is that google earth is free to download and use.

Driving to Fort Polk Army Base from Houston--Google maps says to take LA-467?

But from the looks of the map, it doesnt look familiar from when i went there the first time.


Is LA-467 the road off of which you turn to the left to go into the main gates? Im a little confused on the directions...
Driving to Fort Polk Army Base from Houston--Google maps says to take LA-467?
Hi.. I actually just got back from Fort polk, LA. and I am from the baytown area. right by houston.. I took I-10 East until you get to lake charles, LA. and then from there you get on 171 north, and its a straight shot up to fort polk.. just look for signs on the road that tell you when to turn into fort polks gates.. Its easy can't miss it.. Be careful cause the first gate is for army trucks and things and then the second one you come to will be for visitors and all others.. Just follow signs.. when your on 171 north, once you get into the town of deridder, just keep watching signs cause it can get confusing, but stay on 171 north till you get to fort polk.. and its not long after deridder.. Good luck.. I had a great time there.. Great people
Reply:According to google earth





Take I-10 to US171 go North towards Shreveport/Deridder


Continue on E1st/ US171/ US190 (1.9miles)


turn Right at Pine and go 12.9 miles





Turn Right at Forestry/ La 10 go 3.6 miles





Turn Left at Alabama ave





I think this should bring yoou to the main gates but I'm not sure. I've been out there twice but I was comming from the oppsite direction very late at night.





Does that sound more like the route you went the first time?

Can i download google maps onto nokia n 96 and if yes then from where?

Yes, and you can surf to m.google.com from your phone or just go http://www.google.com/mobile/nokia_stand...





I know it says "nokia_standard" but you could also try the blackberry version because that usually does a good job of finding your exact location relative to where you are.





Best of luck!

When did they update Google Maps?

I noticed that it was updated recently but when did they update it?
When did they update Google Maps?
They try to update it every 3 years or so, in cycles. But this can change.





I do not know when they last updated it, because they update different sections at different times.

Google maps GPS cannot trace my location ?

I am using a windows mobile. In that i use Google maps. In the google maps program, an option is ' use GPS ? ' and if i activate it, there is no difference. I have a GPRS connection, and it says ' My location " is currently not available
Google maps GPS cannot trace my location ?
the GPS connection must really comes from your carrier and not from the google. and some cases, if location cannot be displayed or not available, it also means that your cellphone is not a high powered CP. take note: not all cellphones that has GPS feature can display the map. it will depend on the transmission from your service provider and your CP.


it had happened to a friend who has a GPS equipped CP but it won't display the map. he could always receive, not available, or out of coverage, while mine can be displayed right way in a matter of seconds. complete details of the place, like the name of the shop where i am, the address, tel # of that shop and the exact map and location. also it will display the compass like N87 W65 S80 E90, something like that. you can also request surroundings and near area within the range of 1km or 2km. then if you want it to be printed, you just saved the location and send it to your PC for printing. or you may bring it to the photo developing center. (it's what i have lol)

Why does Google Maps show a street but can't give directions to that street?

Google maps does show direcrions. You have to do is click get directions and enter in both addresses and then you have it.
Why does Google Maps show a street but can't give directions to that street?
This answer was not responsive. The street shows on the map and the satellite, but clicking on "get directions" returns "cannot find" the street. In other words, the direction-finding capability has not been updated to agree with the maps/satellite. Report Abuse

Can you use the iphones' google maps/gps internationally?

I saw on the new yesterday (I live in Philippines) and iPhone is comming out here in September with carriers, and my dad said he'd get me one if he could use the GPS or Google maps on it, and I've heard it does have Maps on it, but I was wondering if it could be used internationally, because we live in Asia and we visit the US every year, and we don't want to keep borrowing GPSs from relatives.
Can you use the iphones' google maps/gps internationally?
As of now, the iPhone does not have any GPS in it.





The way in which the Google Maps (in iPhone) works is like this: It finds out the tower number of the cell phone tower you are currently connected to. It then finds out from the Google database through the internet and finds out the approximate co-ordinates of your current position. This is shown on the google maps. The rpe-requisite for this to work is that you need to have a data connection (GPRS/3G) with your provider. Now, if you are travelling to US, this will work only if you put a SIM of US carrier which includes a data plan. Other than that, it shud work without any problem. But keep in mind that the location which is shown is approx(usually within 1 km. radius) and sometimes it could be wrong too (the software is still in beta)

How do i insert a map from google maps to MS publisher?

Google earth is copyrighted, so make sure to credit them when using their photos. One way is to use a screen-grabbing program like Screen Hunt 5 Free to get a screenshot of your computer. Screen Hunt 5 Free is, of course, free, but it has limitations. It's fine for just getting a simple screenshot, but you can do more with the pro version. Of course, that's not necessary.

Spooky!
Satellite pics of Yahoo, Google, MSN maps - How old are they?
It depends on what part of the world you are lookin at. Some, 8 years old or older! Most are at least three years old. Most all sites use images from landsat or other government survey satellites. Some are arial photos but the government rarely releases these photos until they have been scrutinzed for at least 3 years.
Reply:the reason is quite simple








the pics are 3 -4 years old...even i don see my newly constructed home.....
Reply:As everyone else has said they are of varying ages. As you can imagine with the size of the task it takes a while to update an are , so each area is a different age. People have asked why if they are satellite views of the Earth they are not current. There are current views but these are restricted to government security. If the whole Google Earth site was live it would mean that burglars could watch for you going out and then target your home with no risk. The Internet is a wonderful thing but someone will always abuse it.

How do i copy a map off of google maps onto Word without it screwing up? please help!!!?
I have pulled maps into other programs before... typically InDesign or Illustrator but it should be the same idea. You need to make the map an art file (ie: jpg) and import it in. If you cannot drag the image you want onto your desktop then you can always take a screenshot, then convert the image into a MS word friendly format (jpg would be easiest). Then place the picture file in to the document as you would with any clip art - under the Insert menu

Google maps steet view good or bad?

recently some parts of the uk have been added to google maps street level and i've never heard so much complaining about "privacy invasion" other countries have this do they complain or is it a british disease?
Google maps steet view good or bad?
Bad. Encourages vandalism, burglary and it's a complete invasion of privacy.





They've gone way too far.
Reply:Good. If anyone thinks they have privacy now-a-days, they're smokin crack.

I'm looking for a great map system like google maps?

Well the title says it all, but I'm looking for a really nice map system. I dont have a great phone other wise I would get Nokia maps - However I've seen some mapping systems just never knew what to call them.. something like Google maps or Mapquest for indonesia, Mostly south Jakarta!!





Thanks all!
I'm looking for a great map system like google maps?
Well, you can download Google Earth for free. It is awesome for maps, since it loads a lot faster than Google maps, and you can 'fly' to anywhere in the world, look at pictures, see both road and terrain, etc. You can even zoom out to see the entire globe and make the world spin if you're bored enough.





Add: We've had bad experiences with MapQuest before, and don't use it unless necessary...they include and give directions using streets that no longer exist or misplaced on the map. My aunt once tried to find a concert she was meeting us at, and ended up near the airport when following a MapQuest map.

Yeah, I can see my house on Google Earth. My house isn't covered by anything and we have a car in the driveway. You can also see that our pool is closed. If you type my address in, though, it just brings you to my street. You need to mess around with the map a little bit to get to my house, but yeah, you can see it. The picture is old, though. We've changed our driveway (and gotten a different car) since it was taken.





When Google Earth first came out, you could type in the Pentagon and it would show you a picture of the top of the building in which you could see where the dumpsters were placed, etc. I don't know if they kept that in there, but it seemed like a stupid thing to do.

What's this weird Google Maps object in Libya?

At approximately 27* 39' north, 22* 30' east (I think that's right), there's some kind of great big cloud of smoke and fireballs in Eastern Libya. Looks like an airport or something. Does anyone know what happened?





What's more, there's big fields of huge green dots slightly to the east. Anybody know what those are?
What's this weird Google Maps object in Libya?
They're farms. Since plants don't naturally grow in the middle of the desert, agriculture has to be done in highly controlled areas like that.





I have no idea what smoke and fire you're talking about.


Edit: Nevermind, I found the smoke...I'm checking it out, hang on.


Edit 2: The pictures label it as "Sarar Field". So I'm guessing it's an oil well field and a refinery. The gases (natural gas, etc.) released during oil gathering have to be burned off, so that's probably the cause of the smoke. That, or there were a series of explosions and the satellite just happened to pass by at that time while oil wells were burning.
Reply:The fire spots almost look like oil wells on fire, but they are in the middle of a city, so I'm not sure. And I think the green dots are some kind of water/sewer treatment plant. There is some really strange stuff on Google Earth.

Why are yahoo and google maps soo off ?

When I put in homes I have lived in, like now, the maps are off. Like now, it has my house 1/4 of a mile down the street. The maps are supposed to be better than that.
Why are yahoo and google maps soo off ?
I have yet to find a mapping program that gets my house location right. I think they just use the city's normal grids for the house numbers, but that doesn't take into account that not all the numbers are exactly "on the grid".





For example, around the corner from me, there is a house number 1058. Right next door to it is 1068. Then 1072. And we're talking standard house lots, not a big farm lot on several acres.

How do maps (like on Google or Mapquest) know exactly where a house is and are able to give driving directions

How do maps (like on Google or Mapquest) know exactly where a house is and are able to give driving directions to/from it?
How do maps (like on Google or Mapquest) know exactly where a house is and are able to give driving directions
How does mapquest know where a house is?





Simple answer, they guess. Thats right, they guess. Mapquest has an algorithm called Geocoding which uses the US post office data (for US maps) to guess (quire accurately typically) the latitude and longitude of the address you specify. Geocoding takes the address and compares it to the number of addresses the US post office says is on the current block, and guesses based upon how many addresses there are and the address supplied. For example, suppose you ask for 135 Main St. Now mapquest looks up the info it has for Main St as it is supplied by the US post office, which consists of the address on the end of the block (have you ever seen the signs that say "400" on a street sign?). Now suppose that 135 Main lies on the block that starts at 100 Main and ends at 400 Main. This means there are 300 addresses on this block. Each address is assumed to take 1/300th of the street space. Thus 135 Main will lie 35/300th's of the distance from the 100 end of the block to the other side of the block. Mapquest knows the latitude and longitude of the intersections and computes the lat/long of the address using these numbers. Further explanation here: http://www.mapquest.com/features/main.ad...





How is mapquest able to give driving directions?





Again, they guess. They have very good ways of guessing, but without a massive amount of computation it is not possible to give a perfect answer. Typically the method used for such driving directions is an example of something called a "greedy algorithm". I would hazard a guess that they actually use a form of an A* ("A Star") algorithm, but the technicalities are not important. Basically the algorithm takes a location and looks at all possible directions a person can go if they are at a specified location and chooses the direction which gets the person closer to their goal. They call this a "greedy" algorithm because it continually tries to get closer to the goal. Typically this type of search arrives at the best solution. Other considerations such as travel time are taken into consideration in the real calculations.


For more information on greedy algorithms:

How often is "Google Maps" updated? ?

I saw a street view of my grandparent's house and stuff. It wasn't too long ago, I know that, but about a month ago there was a house that was painted brown, and on Google Maps, it is still the original color. So, how often does this update?
How often is "Google Maps" updated? ?
It's updated when Google receives new satellite imagery from their various sources. This can change wildly depending on where the satellites have crossed over recently, and based on how long it takes for Google to stitch all these millions of images together to overlay the street data, especially for areas that you can zoom in pretty far to.





Some places may have a picture as recent as three months, or a few years. I think I read somewhere that Google tries to have all its images at least within four years, though my own city's images are -at least- four years old, so I'm not too sure about that.





In other words, there's just a lot of information for them to retrieve and put together, so it's not updated too often; maybe once every two or three years. And there's almost no real definite way to no how often your particular area is updated, other than just trying to find landmarks that aren't built yet, or other stuff, like the color of your grandparent's house.

What I did was, on my own (outside the website), go to the location I wanted, then zoom in EXACTLY as desired (no more, no less) and get a street view or map view or...whatever. Then copy the resulting URL from the address bar of the browser. Then use THAT url as a link in the website. The website visitor can then explore from there. (With Google maps you can also set several locations on the same map and have the little pointers showing up. Do it, and copy THAT URL for linking.) Works like a champ.

They've dispatched cars with 360 degree cameras mounted on top. There is plenty of information on the web about how they did it. Pretty simple really.
Reply:Look straight down and you can see the truck with the camera on it that went through our neighborhoods taking pictures of our houses. They have been doing this in every major city for a couple years now.
Reply:I do see that Google Earth now has the stars in the sky from your specific location om Earth.

How can i set up google maps api with php and mysql with Yahoo web hosting?

My answer would be sign up with Lunarpages, install joomla for free, then install google maps extention for free on your joomla web site. All the things that I said takes less than 10 minutes if you know what you are doing. That's the easiest way. If you want more information about what I just said visit the site below, they have a very good articles about cpanel control panel and the good hosting companies that are offering it.

Ok, the maps integration is pretty much client side for API users. If you check out http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documen... I would suggest running through a few examples. If you are looking to track different information about locations or routes, then I would extend those examples to add some ajax functions to be able to use that information client-side. http://www.prototypejs.org/ to download the popular prototype.js which will allow you to easily start making asynchronous calls.





I would also recommend that you consider another host such as:


http://www.GotHosting.org as they provide you with a nicer cpanel interface with instant installs of forums/blogs and other useful software not to mention easily setting up email accounts, sub domains, and addon domains.





Hostgator is pretty good too, but i'd recommend using a coupon site for a discount i.e http://www.hostingdiscounted.com

On Google Earth or Yahoo Maps are your directions to your house messed up.?

The directions are so wrong that they don't even have a clue as to where my house it. Resently someone tried to follow these and they got hopelessly lost.

I can't even find my TOWN on Google or Yahoo let alone my house! XD
Reply:I have better luck on Yahoo than Google but still they can be near impossible to navigate. The .03 and turn in .02's can kill you. I have had no issues with Microsoft trips %26amp; streets, plus you can easily modify your route.
Reply:Use mapquest :)
