interesting product - I've seens raves about Google Map but when I
checked it
out a while back I think it only covered the <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">USA</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
unfortunately<br>
<br>
This product does cover <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region>:<br>

the forum contains an educational section but the answer to the
following
question was a bit cryptic:<br>
is google earth (the free version) legal to use in schools (k-12)??<br>
Investigate our educational programs for what may be unexpected
generosity.

Haven't seen mention of this tool on any of these forums, so on the<br>
off-chance you haven't stumbled across it yet, check out:<br>

It's not open source, but it's an awesome educational resource. ;-) <br>
