Alps in high detail in Google Earth
Posted: Thu Apr 12, 2007 1:33 pm
I just noticed today that large parts of the alps are now in high detail on Google Earth. Especially surfing through Wallis is spectacular now.
Compare these two pictures from Roc de la Vache (near Zinal), with Zinalrothorn, Besso, Dent Blanche and Grd. Cornier:
Pretty neat, I'd say! The digital version is slightly higher than the real photo (~400 m)..
I could also clearly see for instance the normal route on Bishorn when surfing around.
