Haven't tried it yet but looks like it could be fun

That is really cool, and it's actually spot on. I was able to find exactly where I live (there are no labeled streets, but I recognized the map area) and it got doctor's offices, grocery stores, gun shops, military offices/bases, etc all correct. Great thing to print out and keep on hand, just in case.

Really cool, but it's missing a lot of stuff for my crappy town!

degrassinoel

Yeah, same here. Missing three pharmacies, 2 dentists, 3 doctors and a shopping centre.

I'm so glad you both said that, 'cause I was having a look over different countries (I'm in the states) and when I had a look at Ireland, I saw more gas/service stations than anything else.

degrassinoel

Ahem.. that one is pretty accurate lol
The only thing we lack here imo are decent gunshops, the only i even knew of used to be in temple bar, and that's probably gone.

Well, in that case, you'll have plenty of fuel.

It has the petrol station and golf course in my town. Not really much use though. Here is a list of all the things that won't be around after the zombie apocalypse.

No firearms dealers shown on the map...less people to compete with for firearms when Z Day comes:pac: Have my own anyway but a rake of ammunition won't go amiss:P

Yeah mine shows up flakey too, though I'm also using Firefox. I need to test w/ Chrome or something else.

It lists military recruiting stations as "Military Installations" which I don't think they are exactly. You could find some pens and paperwork there but not much useful.

It also didn't list any of our hospitals though it did catch some odd smaller clinics.

A neat idea in any case...

I'm using Chrome, and it was really accurate...I even drove past one area, right by my house, because the map said there was a dentist there but I didn't think there was -it was there.

Any place connected to the military is labeled like that...the Aviation & Space Museum in my town shows as a Military Installation when all it has is planes, etc that I'm not sure even fly anymore. And the only military personnel you'll find there are actually all veterans.
