Here’s a little interactive map of Ghana courtesy of Google Maps. Use the arrows at the upper left corner to move around and to zoom in and out.
As you can see, you cannot get that much detailed view from this map. If you’d like to explore Ghana further from your desktop, download and install Google Earth, a free desktop application from Google.
This free desktop application combines the power of Google Search with satellite imagery, maps, terrain and 3D buildings to put the world’s geographic information at your fingertips. Works on both PCs and Macs.
But even with Google Earth, you still cannot get as much detail about Ghana as you could from other places like the United States. This is because Google has to license the geospatial data from third-party providers.
And guess what… Uncle Google will license this data only when it makes the most economic sense! Yeah, they only buy this data for countries where they make their money from. But would you do otherwise?
