This is amazingly good. I'm reading the diaries of Victor Klemperer, who taught at the Dresden Technical University till the Nazis kicked him out, and not only did I find this interactive map of the city where you can click on a street name and get taken right to it, but also a map of the University and its neighborhood (with photos). And check out this map of Baghdad. Thanks, hama.

My god! You don't wanna give the enemy the map! They'll know where you are.

They'll know where you are.

Not with many of those (gorgeously rendered) maps, they won't.
