New Spain maps service
Monday, June 2, 2008 @ 6:30 PM

Google map of SpainWe've just added a new section on the site where you can look up any maps of Spain.  It works using Google maps and we're going to be integrating the map facility throughout the site.

You can also use it to get driving directions to any location in Spain.

My favourite feature is the "Satellite" overlay.  If you click the "Satellite" button at the top right of any map, you can get a satellite image of the area.  Then use the zoom function to zoom right in and see what's happening on the ground!

The images aren't live and some may even be a couple of years old but if the images in your area are quite new it's a great way of keeping track of the progress of the build of your development.

Do you like this Spain maps feature?  Would you like us to integrate anything else into these maps?

I like Google maps/ Google earth, but their content is too out of date unless you are in the US. Even our UK address (which was recently updated) previously showed images over 8 years old!! At the moment, as far as Google is concerned, our urb is still a building site 2 years after completion.

In a perfect world the images would be more up to date BUT this is definitely a step in the right direction.
Keep up the good work.

Good new feature.
Addition but more like "Mission Impossible" could you provide access to future planned developments?

We have been looking for our plot on Google maps for two years but it has not changed in that time and even then it was well out of date. If it was up to date it would be brilliant.

I think for long established land marks it is great, but something needs to be done to update quicker here in Europe.
