How to Get an Aerial View of Your House

Use Google Maps to see an aerial view of your home.

If you are searching for an aerial view of your home, consider using Google Maps. This free service not only gives you directions to and from virtually any location, but it also allows you to type in any address and displays an overhead view. Google's satellite views are so accurate that many other sites that offer aerial views, like SatelliteViews.net, actually do so using Google Maps.

Things You'll Need

• Computer
• Internet access

Instructions

1. Navigate to maps.google.com.

2. Type in your home address in the search bar, then press the "Enter" key or click the magnifying glass search button. A map of your neighborhood displays on the screen.

3. Toggle between map view and satellite view by clicking the appropriate button displayed on the top-right corner of the map. In map view, you see only streets, while satellite view displays a real aerial shot of the area.

4. Use the zoom feature on the left side of the map if desired by clicking on the appropriate plus or minus button to zoom in or out, respectively.

5. Click the printer icon above the map to print an aerial view of your house.
