You can do the same thing with Quakemap. I attached a .jpg to a previous post, but it didn't go through due to the 75kb limit.

They are then plotted on terraserver provided sat images, and each cache

Other than it being free, how does it compare to ExpertGPS? I have
been using ExpertGPS for a couple years now and love how I can switch
between the Terraserver maps as well as Topo maps of an area.<br><br>
