Getting a Google MAP

[prothero at earthlearningsolutions.org]

Thanks for the openstreetmap link. I'm really liking the Google maps option since my app is being developed for free distribution to educators and I am not particularly interested in streets. The satellite or terrain views are what I want.

Now all I have to do is figure out how to get the lat/Lon values at the corners. Then I'll be all set.

If anybody else is interested in what .I'm doing, I'll be glad to share code.

Best,
Bill

Best,
