Yes, this does work. Google e-mail indicates the following for my address http://maps.google.com/maps?q=7964+w+juniper+shadows+way+tucson+az&ll=32.376784,-111.136794&spn=0.004581,0.007263&t=k&hl=en
which would be: 32.376784 -111.136794 my gps indicates: 32.37684 -111.13494 So the lat difference amounts to 6 meters and the lon difference amounts to 174 meters (at my lat). Looking at the Satelitte image, the arrow is about 200 meters too far west and 50 meters too far south. Looking at the Map view, the arrow is 20 m too far west and right on the latitude Close enough for sundial work.
