I just discovered discovering the world through Google Maps satellite imagery (and made it into a hobby). Recently, I'd just doodle around Google Maps, randomly pick a country/region, scroll around, and drop into street view around the more interesting looking landmarks. I'm currently exploring Iceland and I've discovered soooo many cool landscapes and other things just randomly browsing around.

Are there any guides or lists out there with interesting things to see on Google Maps grouped by country or region?

Hi, does anyone know which country/region this is? We can't find it on Google maps

The Iceland-to-Ireland map fascinated me. I found another...

This is a screenshot from the SKAI data services live spoofing tracking website which provides an interactive world map utilizing live ADS-B data to identify and display potentially spoofed aircraft in real-time, as well as where GPS jamming activity was observed within the last few hours.

Colored hexagons show areas of GPS jamming, or radio frequency interference (RFI). Redder hexagons indicate more jamming. I’ve experienced GPS jamming while flying near White Sands Missile Range and on approach to landing in Mexico City when passing over the large prison that houses high-value inmates. Aircraft that lose GPS signals have alternate back-up systems for determining position and navigation.

Blue dots show clusters of GPS spoofing, in which a false signal is transmitted that causes the aircraft receiver to erroneously believe it is situated in a different location than its actual position. Spoofing is occurring more frequently in areas of active armed conflict, and is a more serious hazard to the safety of flight.

Green circles show the number of aircraft affected by spoofing activity.

Black lines link the actual and false location of the spoofed aircraft. Zoom in and hover over the line to get the aircraft callsign.

For instance: Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United States, and the Nordic countries like Norway and Finland mostly build their houses out of timber. Many other countries mostly build their houses out of concrete. I'm looking for a map that contains this kind of data. Thanks in advance for any leads!

Hi. I hope this is the correct sub. I inherited some documents from my grandfather that indicate Dutch troop movements in Northern Sumatra. Those documents indicate locations based on a number. Is there anyone that can assist me in identifying what (kind of) map was used here? Can I somehow plot those numbers on existing maps?

Any help is highly appreciated :)

Hi, last year i used a website that had a map maker, with options to mark spaces by use, like residential areas, hospitals, parks, types of roads, and many more. I can't find it now. Does anybody know what i'm talking about, or has a similar resource i could use? Thanks

Hi, For my uni project, I want to build an application that will combine Google My Maps and Pinterest where you have an editor where you can create your maps/routes and share them as a post or paste them on some global map (if I would really want to implement such functionality).

Currently, it is on a draft stage and I would want to hear other people's opinions. So please complete my survey https://forms.gle/NvMHL8HmMhwkuKMu8

I couldn't find any suitable tag, so a question: What?

Hello All!

I was wondering if you could help me.

I am looking for Pre-1AD topographic maps of Europe, Middle East and North Africa, is there a website that collects that information.
