check out http://maps.google.com, http://maps.yahoo.com andhttp:// openstreetmap.org for Chromepet near Chennai. Look at MIT and you will see the power of OSM. OSM is the geographical equivalent of wikipedia. If you have a GPS logger, you can make traces and upload them. Even without a logger you can help complete OSM for your area using the Yahoo! satellite imagery as a base. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ Foss conference for the common man: http://registration.fossconf.in/web/ -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
