Snapshot: Layered geodata viewer
This compact dashboard tool displays maps, satellite images and other geospatial data from several web services at once. You can cycle through the available layers quickly and assemble the exact combination of maps and services you need for a given task.
Data sources supported
- TNT Map Viewer
- TNT Open
- Google Earth
- Google Maps
Navigation and controls
A small control strip lets you toggle which layers are visible and pick the active source. You can search and zoom independently on any linked site, so you move freely to the area you need and combine views from different providers.
Benefits of using it
Because the widget acts as a single point of control across multiple websites, you get full control over composition and display. That makes it easy to tailor the maps to your purpose and to compare data from different sources side by side.
Practical notes from use
At first the imagery felt sluggish, but it usually refreshed after a quick mouse-wheel scroll. Opening several pages at once could be awkward at times, yet the address bar proved reliable — I was able to locate three former homes on the first try.
