[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] On line map of Germany and other countries

[Michael & Maureen McHenry]

This is a resend the link didn't have a space before the start of the
next sentence and incorporated the first word.

Have anyone tried this one http://uke.multimap.com/. It does cover part
of Eastern Europe.

Really neat maps system on line that makes MapQuest look very old
fashioned.

http://www.map24.com

Click on the little British flag for English version.  Enter a town or 
street address of interest and watch it work.

Once the map comes up, you can zoom in or out as if you are flying in a 
balloon without waiting for a new page.  The features, surrounding
roads, 
rivers etc. all retain their relative positions as you go in or out.
Not 
only is it a virtual zoom but if you click the sides of the map or
another 
nearby town, it slides over to centre that location.  It also has a 
"rocket" function that automatically zooms in and out.

Unfortunately it appears to cover only the current European Market 
countries, not Poland or Ukraine at this time.
