While Bing sucks for most things, use Bing Maps 'birds eye view'. You can rotate, and see far more detail than in google maps.

I'll check that out, thanks.

The images are taken from planes flying over, so you can literally get four different angles anywhere. They are not just top-down images like on google maps, so you get sort of a 45-degree view of everything which makes sides of buildings, landscape details, etc... much easier to pick out. Like, you can see concrete slabs, and old structure (like an old, collapsed bridge) in Rock Creek park for instance.

That sounds very helpful.
