As part of trying to make plan to visit some of the Model Railroads in the Tour de Chooch,
http://www.hubdiv.org/tourdechooch.htm ,
wanted to get all pins (for each day) on Google Map.
Tour de Chooch PDF flyer - select all - copy - paste into favorite document. Note the two column causes interleaving of text. Tried various crop and copy tools, but ended up throwing up my hands, and using an editor to get text in place.
Search for each address in Google Maps via a copy/paste. Then add each to a saved map. Address is title by default. Cut and paste street address into description (add a comma too). Then copy layout description and number into the title. Edit overall title and description. Results as follows. Short URLs were for my own interest mainly.

Recent aerial data - TerraServer.
Looking for aerial views, and of course Google and Bing
and others have great offerings, street view, and so on, but often looking for things that are new/current in the past months:
- images of new building going up
- progress on a civic project
- natural disaster effects
Stumbled across TerraServer.
The imagery drop down tells you the resolution, and when the image was taken. For example, look at 120 Kingston Street in Boston, and compare most recent data to a few months/years ago. http://www.terraserver.com/view.asp?cx=-71.05925380000002&cy=42.3523836&proj=4326&mpp=0.5&sdrt=jax
