558978 2007-06-14 05:20:00 Hi guys,

Besides google earth and wikimapia, are there other decent sites for aerial photos?

Im trying to focus on waikato and porirua areas.

Cheers people

558979 2007-06-14 05:23:00 Some councils are getting photomaps. That lets them find out who should have been getting building permits. :D Graham L (2)
558980 2007-06-14 05:30:00 Aerial Photography contractors usually sell aerial photographs (for a fee of course).

Otherwise there are things like Live Earth, Live Maps, etc. which may be worth a shot - they could very well be using the same dataset though.

558982 2007-06-14 21:15:00 Thanks guys, yea Im finding if it isn't free it isn't cheap either. It kind of sux because it is something your not going to use again once you got it. Oh well I guess I'll hassle the council :nerd: rob_on_guitar (4196)

Here's MY offer .

I'll personally fly over your house and photograph it for you .

All I need is round trip tickets from LAX with a 3 week stopover at your abode .

I eat most anything, drink water and beer and coffee . I also like lots of mutton and lamb chops . I sleep soundly and can entertain myself during the week .

Is there any local fishing spot?

Is there someplace to rent a small single-engined plane for the flyover?
