Kalabaka Greece

Kalabaka, Greece
Came across this image on daily timewaster and wondered how well Google's 3D Map would render it. Pretty well, as you can see.

Google's vision of Kalabaka, Greece
Google's 3D Maps are pretty cool. Follow the link, hold down the Ctrl key on the keyboard and the left mouse key on your mouse, drag the mouse around, and the whole town comes alive in 3D. It's pretty amazing. Doesn't work everywhere, notably most of China, but more and more of the world is being mapped by LIDAR, which, near as I can tell, is how we get these 3D renderings.

Update a week later replaced image that Blogger somehow managed to lose.
