I have seen this sort of layout before, specifically on a Tourist Information site maintained by authorities on St. Martin (French) or Sint Marteen (Dutch). In that case it inspired me to try (unsuccessfully as it happened) to reach the island high point so that I could try to replicate one of the pano shots on the site.
When I saw Christian's shot of the harbor, my thought was 'where is the Opera House?' When I saw yours, I thought 'Oh! There is the Opera House!' The viewpoint map really helps put those into perspective.
BTW, I like both of the harbor shots. I can't wait to be there and take some of my own.
Counting the days...

I just found an interesting page which provides a map and the associated views of our fair city from these points. It looks like a great idea for photogs planning a city visit. Do you know of a similar page in your local?

If anyone is interested my PAW pano was shot from approximately point 18 and Christians was shot from just above where the "1" label sits on the map, that's why the Opera House was just out of view in his shot.
