simovitch Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Well, the Nordrhein-Westfalen portion of germany. The orthophotos are so clear that you can just make out some old dragons teeth if you know where to look :eek: . The topo is high quality as well, at 1:25000. Caution though: It ain't from the '40's. joe bob says check it out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 That's just cool... also helps you to understand what the topo maps can look like in real life. here's an example: Hopefully we get similar (free!) services covering other parts of Europe in a short time, too... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Hmmm....tantalizing - tried to get in to the Remagen area but my limited command of anything but high school German has failed me once again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 That would be because it is not in Nordrhein-Westfalen, but in Rheinland-Pfalz. Think Alberta/Sakatchewan, and you get the idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simovitch Posted February 26, 2005 Author Share Posted February 26, 2005 There is great coverage of the Hurtgenwald though, and the start of Rollbahn A (and B, and C) where the 1SS panzer corps began the advance through the Krinkelterwald during the Ardennes Offensive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArgusEye Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 A great resource at the time, but Google Earth blows most of it away. What is still useful, is staff maps of the battlefields. A commodity hard to come by. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
