Description   

Attention:
This cache can be searched until august 2008.
More information (in german):
http://www.geoclub.de/ftopic22058.html

task:
Show me a spot on google map where the data is still missing
("we are sorry, but we don´t have imagery at this zoom level
for this region. try zooming out for a broader look").
This data needs to be missing for at least 7 (seven!) of the
highest zoom levels!

But be warned:
If google map is updating its data sources in the future and
your old link produces no missing data anymore, then Your log
will be removed by me and you have to search again.

procedure:
a) browse to http://maps.google.com
b) position to your spot by using mouse only
(avoid input of location names - otherwise step d) is not working)
c) switch to Hybrid modus
d) click on "link to this page"
e) log with this generated link - and that´s it!

Each person may only log 1 (one) spot, and please keep little distance
to other logged spots.
Happy Google Mapping, Mic@


PS.
There are much more google map caches to discover, so just
invent your own one. But please use the same cache title
saying "Google Maps (...)" - this makes it much easier to
search for. And always maintain your cache by keeping up
a picture gallery with all founds, so that browsing through
all logs can be done visually Wink

James Cook landete 1775 auf den Sandwich-Inseln im Südatlantik. Hätte er damals Google Maps benutzt, wäre er wohl nie angekommen. Zumindest nicht ab der 11. Stufe. ;-)

Die libanesische Hauptstadt Beirut hätte er mit Hilfe des Satellitenbildes vielleicht gefunden, aber eine Karte steht ab der 9. Stufe bereits nicht mehr zur Verfügung:
