Yes, I use where is the path a lot, a very useful site, especially being able to compare different periods of OS maps.

Is there no way of using streetmap (at least for UK) as that uses OS maps. You can move the arrow round on that too.

Streetmap was taken over by Bing, which is why Bing has OS maps on it.

Chris.

And MultiMap!

The new mapping feature when adding / editing mines has been further improved.

The zoom levels are now more sensible; so if you're adding a new mine you can see the whole globe, just zoom in (or use your mouse wheel) and drag around until you find the area, click and job done.

If it's UK then you can enter the grid ref and it'll go to that spot on the map automatically and you can then fine tune using the map if you wish.

Next enhancement to mapping coming in a few weeks 😉
