Hello,

I'm pleased to announce that the TMA site database is now available for use with Google Earth.

http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/googleEarth/

Hopefully this will compensate for the ever-slowing Technicolour Map Browser!

Please leave any feedback / report problems here in the forum.

Thanks
HMCG

Ta for that Holy but would it be possible to do the same with FlashEarth? For much of mainland UK, outside of the cities, the imagery is better.
Jim.

Hey!

Does this mean The Megalithic European site is inching closer...?

Eagerly waiting for this to load so I can PLAY!

For those having problems I've additionally posted a none-Networked, static download. This doesn't connect to TMA and attempt to download the latest data. Instead a zipped snapshot of the database is created every 24 hours.

Let me know how you get on,

Thanks

Whenever I try to open it with Google Earth it says it has to shut down. WAAAHHH!!

Any advice? I'm on Windows XP if that helps.

The megalithomania version for Google Earth will be live tomorrow I hope. I have been in Spain for a while and didn't have chance to put it online before I went.

Maps to the south-west, north-east and east of Dublin have been updated with higher res versions. This makes this worthwhile installing for those concerned.

Have to say I'm well impressed with this. One complaint is that the Irish map is mainly lo-res but that's not the fault of TMA.
I've zoomed into some of the UK monuments and it's great to be able to see them from the air and in the landscape. I've searched the hi-res parts of the Irish map and haven't been able to view a single one. The bigger sites, like Newgrange, are in lo-res areas.
I had never actually used the previous maps for research but this addition to TMA has got me addicted.

Thanks folks

Andy
