Yes, very good for the more built up areas, interesting looking at some of the places in London where I've worked.

That's very good RW, it's a bit of a shame that my graphics card is not up to the job, but still very good.
Also very handy if you want to know latitude & longitude of any given area, and also for elevation.
I am 48 feet above sea-level, now taking global warming into account I am going to work out when my bungalow will be a beach front property.
