There is no doubt, Google maps has some very fine features for the Architectural Technologist, from the simple street view to maps view, but the best is Street View, dropping the little man onto the road where your property is located, and seeing the elevation.
I use this a lot when setting up a new project, or if I have done a survey and that one shot of a side or from view is missing, then Google Street view has sorted it.
You might want to view this great video, of Google maps use, Steve Dotto has 5 great tips, I think there is more, but the history tab is really cool. It does not always have history my own home is still 2009 as the last street view, but more popular places do, say the centre of Birmingham.
