Hadrian\'s Wall on Google Earth - mcbishop - 07-25-2007
Here's a little something to celebrate the fact that Google Earth has updated its coverage of northern England:

Let me know if you experience any glitches etc.
Enjoy...

Beautiful stuff. Thanks, Mike! Hadrian's Wall was already on my list for when I visit the UK, but it just jumped a few places higher.

I wish I could move there! Love the area!!! especially Corbridge and Vindolanda!

Sometimes I curse having a big thousands-mile wide ocean, and a similar sized continent, in between me and places I'd love to visit. More accurately, having to work for a living and thus not having time. Oh well, when I'm Imperator, that's going to change....

When you become Imperator...I volunteer to be your traveling underling!!

Hell, I only have a couple of hundred miles between me and many things i would like to see, and my job usually stops that!
Hopefully this will change now I have a 'GOOD' job!
To Mike, I have a problem with the links, as even though I have downloaded and installed Google earth, every time I try the link, it just takes me back to the googleearth download page!
Any ideas people?

You are selecting the link that reads 'Download plv-04.kmz now (90Kb)' aren't you?

Sure thing, Wes! You'll need a backpack twice your size, and 2 halves of a hollow coconut. European Swallow is optional. Pay is 50 secertes a day, benefits after 30 days.

Per Lineam Valli now includes the Cumbrian Coastal System and Temporary Camps along the line of the Wall and, as of this weekend, has links to the same information on the Microsoft Virtual Earth (aka maps.live.com) system (which, ironically, was where this whole thing began last Christmas) but which is still hampered by the 200-item limit on any collection, so requires different categories for each element of the Wall; I also have problems getting Virtual Earth to work in 3D on my laptop - it keeps crashing it, whereas Google Earth works as sweet as a nut).
Anyway, for what it's worth, it's there for your delight and delectation.

Yup, and I also tried turning it off and turning it back on again (afficionados of The IT Crowd will get that one ;-).
The Per Lineam Valli file has made it into Google Earth Gallery, now that they allow you to submit your own sites.
