Ordnance Survey Overlays on Multimap Aerial Photos
Nick writes on Here Be Dragons: “I was just playing with multimap.com’s aerial photograph feature, and noticed something I hadn’t seen mentioned on here before — Ordnance Survey map overlays applied dynamically on mouseover over the aerial photo.” Nick’s example. Google may get all the attention (here too, I have to confess), but that’s got to be the coolest integration of satellite/aerial photography and maps that I’ve yet seen.

there’s something similar running at www.icc.es when you click on the fourth image of the homepage (named Mapes continus, that roughly translates to continuous maps): the transparency works both with the Ortofoto 1:25000 and the Geological 1:50000, at a close zoom level.
