Google Earth Images

These are just a few of my favorite Google Earth images. It pisses me of when you find pictures of cool stuff on maps and then can't locate them, so I'll paste the co-ordinates to them so you can check them out yourself. Get Google Earth here. Click on the image to enlarge...

This looks rather unremarkable, but I was impressed. It's the state of Iowa and the best I can tell, the entire state is covered with nothing but farmland and roads. 89% of the state is indeed farmland and it is criss-crossed by 235,460 lane miles of road, 14th  most miles in the nation.  41°52'45.85"N  93°26'27.38"W (Image is from 100 miles up.)
