Look here in Google Earth (with latest .kml)


At the risk of repeating myself, please don't try to use Google Earth
to search. Only use Mechanical Turk. The reason is simple - the area
to be searched is huge, and MTurk makes sure that each area gets
looked at, but only the appropriate number of times. If you use Google
Earth, you could well be looking at areas that have been searched
already by MTurk, wasting your time, while unsearched areas go
ignored, hindering the search.

Hi.. I respect your intension.

In my case; I search primarily via Amazon MTurk.
Thére was it I reviewed this "hit"-picture. And reported it.
And posted it as a "second-opinion" in this dread.

So I agree on your view, but me by someone jumped in to conclusions.

Greetings from The Nederlands,
Ro

I did and I apologise.

I could have phrased my post better too. However I think there's
weight in the arguments I made. That said, if you do want to use GE to
search, this will be of interest:
