 +====== Google Offset ======
 +
 +This page demonstraits the offset between Google'​s satellite images and road maps. I have taken GPS waypoints in the centre((Yes,​ I was careful and looked both ways.)) of each road, and made each into a marker. As you can see, the road maps are accurate, but the satellite images are displaced in both coordinate directions.
