| Hello, if you are able and willing to, please make a map of Hansa Līzings cartodrome in Kandava, Latvia. Sorry, no English Wikipedia page. It has a truly bad resolution image in Google Earth, at circa 57°02'03.31"N; 22°47'2.83"E. You can use this map as a comparison to understand where is what (for example, Jelgavas iela is road P109). There are three images of the track: in Latvian Wikipedia, in the home page of the track and another one in the home page of the track. None of the turns have names, except for №9 (Tilke) and №11 (Skonto Būve or Skonto Buve, if you don't have umlauts available).
There are 10 types of people - those who understand binary code and those who don't.

- Frankly, if GE has bad resolution there, I may not be able to do much. When I get too it, I will look into whether existing images would at least let me make a map. If GE does get better imagery for the region, please submit a new requrest.
- Please start a new thread for each request. Thanks.

Site Map
My name is Will Pittenger. I have been making KMZ sets for Google Earth for a long time. After I starting making those, I wanted overlays for my sets. I was unsatisfied with the accuracy of the images available at Wikimedia Commons. So I started making my own with Inkscape and uploading them. Then I needed a place for anyone that liked my KMZ sets and/or maps to find others. For a while, a simple blog sufficed. But, once I started getting requests, I knew I needed something better. This site is the result. You are welcome to set up an account. Some activities are for registered users only. Take your time poking around and let me know what you think.
