Google Maps the Philippines

The Philippines is in Google Maps. You don’t need to go around the world in search of aerial photography.

Their source is inconsistent. Metro Manila is in low resolution, but locations outside have it better.

The Google developers have created a programming interface for developers which has spawned a lot of fun applications. I don’t have an app yet, but I can show you where I am right now. Can you guess?

I got the latitude/longitude, not from a GPS, or a map, but from my cellphone. I have access to a cellular company’s positioning service and I queried it. Our friends outside of Metro Manila with their more detailed maps can make better use of this – for now.
