ImageNet
========

Images of the earth are available through ImageNet, a service
provided by Core Software Technology. These pages combine
satellite imagery, aerial photography, vector data, and
demographic data into one large network of information. The
software lets you point to an area of the world and zoom in at
higher and higher resolutions. When you've zoomed in as close as
you want, the ImageNet system searches its database and comes up
with images that best meet what you've requested. After you verify
the coordinates and resolution, an image is retrieved and
displayed on screen. It helps to know that repeated zoom-ins on
the base map do not necessarily result in a more detailed image;
the program only retrieves what is in the database. ImageNet's
philosophy is to "combine data from many sources and make it
available quickly and easily." The service is free on the Web now,
but it might begin charging fees in the future. Ordering
information is provided, along with e-mail contact information.
