Information for first-time users

2007-04-15T20:37:00.000-07:00

For each venue, this page contains the following links:

Website: the website, if any, of the destination venue.
History: the history, if any, of the destination venue, provided by the Handbook of Texas or other reliable source.
Annotated road map: a road map indicating the location of the destination venue with respect to easily-described landmarks.
Road Map (Google): A road map provided by Google Maps, presented at a scale that includes the entire venue. The destination venue is approximately the center of the map.
Road Map (MapQuest): A road map provided by MapQuest, presented at MapQuest's default scale. The destination venue is indicated by a red star. Only accurate MapQuest maps are included here; many MapQuest maps have been omitted because of inaccuracies.
Topographic Map (Topozone): A topographic map provided by Topozone, Inc. The destination venue is approximately at the center of the map; in the case of large venues (state parks, wildlife refuges), the map may show only a portion of the venue. Topozone recently merged with Trails.com; as a result of this merger, access to free USGS maps has been restricted. The links in this page will work for access to one map, but you may not be able to change the presentation (change scale, recenter, etc.). Topozone uses the most recent topographic imagery provided by the U.S. Geological Survey; in some cases, these maps may be quite out-of-date.
Satellite Photo (Wikimapia): A combination map and satellite photo provided by Wikimapia.org, presented at a scale appropriate to the size of the destination venue. To switch between maps and sat photos, select VIEW, then select MAP, SATELLITE, or HYBRID as desired. The destination venue is indicated by one or more boxes; click inside each box for information about the venue. To ensure that all boxes are visible, click VIEW, then UPCOMING PLACES. Wikimapia uses satellite imagery provided by Google; in some cases, resolution may be quite poor. This situation will improve in the future, as Google continues to acquire high-resolution imagery.
