" TerraView\n" + " =========\n" + "\n" + "TerraView is an application to obtain images and display them. The\n" + "images are United States Geographical Society (USGS) images that are\n" + "provided by the Microsoft TerraServer USA or by Microsoft MapPoint.\n" + "The Microsoft TerraServer is a free Web Service. It requires an\n" + "Internet connection. To get the MapPoint images you need to have\n" + "Microsoft MapPoint installed on your computer.\n" + "\n" + "When you start the program, the Control Panel will display. You can\n" + "use it to choose the location by latitude and longitude and also vary\n" + "the parameters. When you press the Go button on the Control Panel, it\n" + "will display the image. If you want to search for a location by name\n" + "rather than by specifying the latitude and longitude, first select the\n" + "desired parameters on the Control Panel and select Apply. Then select\n" + "Search on the Options Menu and find a location by typing its name.\n" + "When you select OK on the Search dialog, it will display the location\n" + "using the parameters you applied. If you did not apply any, it will\n" + "use the default parameters.\n" + "\n" + "The image is displayed in the TerraView Main Window. Clicking in the\n" + "Main Window re-centers the image. The Control Panel has additional\n" + "controls for selecting the image and is described in more detail\n" + "below. You can also use Search at any time as described above.\n" + "\n" + "You can also zoom as you click in the Main Window, using the following\n" + "modifier keys:\n" + "\n" + " Alt + Left\t\t\tZoom In\n" + " Ctrl + Alt + Left\t\tZoom Out\n" + " Shift + Alt + Left\t\tZoom In 2x\n" + " Shift + Ctrl + Alt + Left\t\tZoom Out 2x\n" + "\n" + "TerraView is distributed subject to the license conditions in the file\n" + "LICENSE included with the program.

UrbanAreas only exist for\n" + "certain parts of the United States but are available in higher\n" + "resolution and in color. The UrbanAreas images are typically newer\n" + "than the Photo maps, as well. Topo images are USGS topological maps.\n" + "These are older yet. If MapPoint 2002 is installed on your system,\n" + "TerraView will also get images from MapPoint. These images show roads\n" + "and other landmarks and are a useful addition to the types of data\n" + "obtained from the other images.\n" + "\n" + "Scale\n" + "\n" + "Allows you to choose the scale for the images. Scale32m, for example,\n" + "means 32 meters per pixel.\n" + "\n" + "Longitude\n" + "Latitude\n" + "\n" + "Allows you to specify a decimal longitude and latitude.

A\n" + "larger number pans further.\n" + "\n" + "Compass Control\n" + "\n" + "Allows you to pan and zoom the image. Panning will be by the fraction\n" + "specified in Pan.

If you click on the map, it will be re-centered and the type\n" + "and scale will be as specified in the Control Panel.
