You may have tinkered around looking at Cedar Point using Yahoo and Google Maps, but check it out using Microsoft Live Search:

Cedar Point

The level of detail is amazing! If you install the 3D component, it gets even better!

A little old isn't this? No Maverick? No Skyhawk?

Its March/April of 2005.

They don't have time to constantly update the system. Although it'd be nice to have something soon, its been 2 years.

What does the 3d look like?

It probably looks three dimensional. :)

Hasn't this topic come up numerous times before?

I spy a little magnum train baby! I'll have to congratulate Mr and Mrs 200 ;)

That's the short train for Ensign. ;)

*Splutters*.

It's not how long your train is, it's what you do with it.

It is most cost prohibitive for MS or anyone to fly and produce these files regularly. First there are still many settled places that they do not have yet in the 'bird's eye view' and second most places do not change dramatically from year to year.

I must say that the 3d is pretty neat, even if there isn't anything at CP yet. You have to go to a larger city to see what it's all about.
