    Does anyone know of any website where one could enter their exact latitude and longitude and get a map showing their location? I'm kicking around an idea where I could use something like this at work.

    Thanks.

    Two birds with one stone. Google Earth will let you go anywhere in the world...can then find the latitude/longitude info.

    Google Earth lets you fly anywhere on Earth to view satellite imagery, maps, terrain, 3D buildings and even explore galaxies in the Sky. You can explore rich geographical content, save your toured places and share with others.

    Thanks for the reply. I have Google Earth on my computer at home. I opened it up but couldn't find anyplace where I would type in the latitude and longitude. I have a device in my car at work that gives me my exact location in latitude and longitude. What I am looking for is some way to type that info in and get a map, for example, of where I am.
