ACTIVITY 1:
1. Look through the list of "100 Things To Do With Google Maps".
2. In your blog, note a hypothetical question that you could best answer through visualization, and list the site you would use to answer it.
Q. Where can I find a wireless hotspot in Crosby at 2 a.m. in the morning?
A. According to hotspoter (http://hotspotr.com/spot/8529-crosby-branch-library), Wireless can usually be picked up from parking lot of the Crosby Branch Library 24 hrs a day. The parking lot is located at 135 Hare Rd, Crosby, TX 77532, USA. Does this completely answer your question?
ACTIVITY 2:
1. Explore Global Incident Map, Terra Server, or National Atlas.
2. Find a map or image that interests you.
3. Post it or a link to it in your blog and write about something you learned.
I looked through all three.
- The Incident Map had the nicest graphics. After all if you're going to be scared, why not make the images as vivid as possible -- like in true crime books.
- I was a bit disappointed in the National Atlas. Not much to show in Harris County.
- I used Terra Server to find pix of the best wireless hotspot parking lot in Crosby and compared it to Google Map of same. Terra Server at highest resolution is on the left; Google at its highest resoulution is on the right.
