How do I provide correct URLs for my locations?
First of all, center the location on the map screen. You can do it either by dragging the map, or by simply double-clicking on the location - Google maps script will automatically center it.

Second, check if your location is zoomed to an optimal size. If it is too small, other users will not be able to see what it is all about.

And the third step - it's not enough to copy the URL from address bar. Take a look at screenshot below. There is "Link to the page" link to the right of Google maps page. Right click it, copy it by selecting "Copy Shortcut" and paste it in our URL field on map submit form.



Regards!

What is satellite imagery?
Satellite imagery are photographs of Earth or other planets made from artificial satellites.

It is digital data obtained from sensors carried in satellites. It includes collecting data both in the visible and non-visible portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. One system is the multispectral scanner carried in Landsat satellites.

What this site is focused on?
This site aims collecting knowledge base about Globe places that might be of different interest to the community. Then we are building a robust catalog for most versatile data representation.

Our catalog is mainly growing thanks to our site community who is constantly contributing new submissions to our database.

Information on places in our databases afterward must be really complex and rich, including business valued data. Just now you are able to browse places and see their satellite made shots, descriptions, geo location and find other web resources on them.
