G'day,
if you haven't already seen this,
check out
http://earth.google.com and download the free Google Earth programme,
it allows you to view the whole earth via satellite images, most capital cities in Australia have high resolution images and
places like Ayers
Rock look great when you zoom in and tilt the image and rotate around it as if you were in a helicopter,
for those that are technical buffs, it has about 100m DEM (digital elevation modelling) which gives you a 3D look at the planet when you tilt the image, I have used it to view
places I have wanted to visit or have visited, great fun,
just type in a Lat Long or city in the search bar and it goes straight there...
cheers
