I found mine, slightly left of center.
Yeah, that’s cool. I once whiled-away most of a night shift finding my house and other “landmarks” in my area. Unfortunately, the pics are a few years old and will not show anything that was build in the last couple of years.
Found it! Ours was taken in 1998.
Nice site; thanks!
Jeff, I started with your picture, changed the scale so it covered more territory, then used the arrows to head towards my place. After Upper Marlboro, you hit the edge of the world - nothing SE of there at all.
I pushed through the white-out, and eventually the photos picked up near the edge of the Chesapeake Bay. My neighborhood is there, but the photos are dated 1993, and a lot of the houses on my street aren’t built yet!
I’m here.
We’re here.
It’s an old photo, before our horse barn was built. Terraserver never used to have a good picture of our place, but now they do. What’s really cool is if you plug your address into MapQuest. They’ve added aerial photographs to the map, and their picture was from last year.
Here is the link to the terraserver photo of where I work. I’m in the right-most building of the 4-building complex in the upper left part of the picture.
My photo was too dang dark . . .
Tripler
But I know my home’s exact latitude and longitude, and UTM.
This picture is of the main area of Camp Pioneer. The Terra Server photo is not zoomed in all the way, if you zoom it in a bit more you can even see the water flowing over the dam on the river. The white water flowing over the dam is only about 2 ft. wide. You can also see the pool (dead center of the photo - white rectangle with black center) and the dining hall (two ‘pyramids’ to the right of the pool). The rest of the camp is ouf of frame to the right. Compare the terraserver map to the camp map.

Thanks, Trouble, I didn’t see how to resize the picture at first. Here’s where I work, the upper portion of the half-circle.
Here’s where I spent my first 11 years, the house is the small white rectangle to the right and slightly above center. The dark blotch at the bottom is the town swimming hole and the angled streets originally bordered a rail line. The white rectangles on the right edge is where I went to school. The empty area in the top left corner is the cemetary.
Here’s another neighborhood we lived in. Note the runway for New Orleans International on the left edge.
My apartment is in the large building just off-center.
Here is the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, where my mother worked several years and I worked one summer in the mailroom. In the center top of this one is the old Perry High School building (Manchester Elementary is to its right), only a couple miles south of the power plant. And less than a mile south of that is my grandparents’ house.
I’ve just moved here, second house down from the northeast corner of the park.
I work here, the slightly curved building at the lower left of the baseball diamond. The games can be distracting sometimes.
No current aerial photo of my house.
Irony–I make aerial photos for a living.
And Jeff Olsen, those photos from that site are just awful!! If I turned that kind of imaging in to my boss, he’d have my @ss for antimatter. You can get better quality images these days.
Here is where I live.
Well, that’s the plot of land that my condo now sits on. Apparently I moved into a place that was built after 1996!
I live in the middle of this muddle.
That’s Brooklyn’s Prospect Park in the middle. I’m two blocks west of the little circle at the southernmost end of the western side of the park.
The little white “L” shape in the extreme upper center (the next grid square to the right of the up arrow) of this is my driveway. Dammit, why does my house have to be right on the edge of the picture? Click the up arrow to see my backyard.
This is the store I work at (bottom center–the top of the pic is the auto wrecking yard next door)
Here. This is my end of the trailer park I live in (hit the down arrow to see where the trash live). The dark rectangle in the center of the picture (the last trailer in the row) is my house. You can see our sheds slightly above and to the left of the trailer, and notice that we have the biggest backyard in the park. The huge swath of light space in the upper half of the image is one of the cornfields.
My house is about here. I’m to the right of the center. You can barely see my house, though, as a huge maple tree blocks most of it. It’s just south of that huge white field.
The large building in the lower-right hand corner is the elementary school I went to. Very short walk to school in the morning.
Jackson, Mississippi:
Here is the house where Juliana and I live. Go to the bottom of the parking lot in the picture, go across that street there, and the dark blotch between the small house and the other house southwise (which is now long gone…) are the trees over my house. My parents live three houses up the street.
