Comments on: Replace Google’s Aerial Imagery with USGS/Terraserver http://blog.kylemulka.com/2006/01/replace-googles-arial-imagery-with-usgsterraserver/ Thu, 02 Mar 2017 22:34:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.2 By: Wes http://blog.kylemulka.com/2006/01/replace-googles-arial-imagery-with-usgsterraserver/comment-page-1/#comment-1487 Mon, 17 Apr 2006 19:42:00 +0000 http://blog.kylemulka.com/?p=346#comment-1487 Thanks Kyle! BTW, I also just noticed The new Yahoo Maps Beta (http://maps.yahoo.com/beta/) has aerial images, (and a quick check shows that the images are more up to date than both Google and Terraserver… At least where I looked…) So I may end up using Yahoo’s mapping api instead…

It will have to wait until at least the end of the month because I’m pretty busy with final projects for school and I want to switch over to v2 of the API.

I have one request: Can you provide easy instructions on how to add a Terraserver button *in addition* to the google satellite button? Seems that just including the javascript will replace the google satellite functions, but I’d like to give users the option of switching back and forth to see which one shows them the best detail.

Thanks!

Even if my server goes down, if you are using a local copy of the Javascript file, it will still work.

I am a complete newbie at Google Maps but I am customizing a basic map to suite my needs.

I added the GMap_USGS.js script to my code and it works great. How could I go about adding some additional buttons so that I could choose the topo maps from USGS instead of the DOQ maps. I read your blog entry on adding custom maps but as easy as you replaced the Google aerial maps with the USGS, I thought there must be an easy way to add additional buttons to call the Topo maps.

Thanks and keep up the good work.
