UPDATE 11/13/06: Rumsey Historical Maps now in Featured Content using Google Earth 4
Nothing major yet but now historical map layers of
London from
1666 and
1690 are now available for Google Earth!
Now imagine if National Geographic did this with all their maps. Compare the expansion of the
Roman Empire with the European Union's on Google Earth. Or better yet, Indian tribes in
America compared to watersheds (Why? Because we could!) (Hat tip: The great
Map Room Blog)
Update: Using the map's transparency I can see where the river's banks have changed. How cool is that?
