I've signed up for Terraserver.com, to get 1 meter resoltion photos of my hunting area -- great stuff!! Problem is, I haven't figured out how to overlay the photos with UTM coordinate lines so I can use these photos to plot my GPS waypoints. Anybody that can help point me in the right direction?? Many thanks.

Shufigo,
Go to http://jdmcox.com/ and download the program called USA PhotoMaps. It will download the aerial photos as well as topos at the same scale to your hard drive. Then as you put your cursor over the photo or the map it will show you the exact UTM coordinates for where your mouse is pointing. This is a very cool program.

ExpertGPS will also download the images from terraserver and overlay UTM or LAT/LON lines on top. You can aslo print the map and the grid lines will be visiable.

You can download a trial version at:
