Help with URL
      10/03/08 01:06 PM

I tried to get a URL in Birds Eye and it didn't have coordinates so it was rejected, so I used the Arial view url. How do I get one that you will accept in Birds Eye view?

Look at the URLs of both the aerial and BEV maps. See the section that follows the letters "cp"? That's the center point of the map and is encoded in BEV. Copy the latitude and longitude numbers after the "cp" in the aerial URL and paste them into the BEV map URL in place of the letters. Submit that doctored URL after you test it.

There used to be a tutorial here that was more descriptive than I just was, but I'll be damned if I can find it...

Nic?
