    Alternative to Google Earth

    Hi everyone, I stumbled across this site:

    PhotoMaps by NearMap

    It's just like Google Earth, but you can scroll back through time by looking at any available pictures of a photographed area.

    This also provides oblique views from North, West, South and East so you can view sides of buildings and determine heights / relaitve heights. We started using it at work recently & its great. As far as I'm aware, the oblique views are only available in WA, but I understand they wil be updating al states in the near future. Check multiview tab of the maps.

    Terrible detail but I have always lived in the bush so I guess no one wants to look at isolated places
