US Swimming Pool Search:

US Paintball Field Search:


X-Maps.com lets you find physical landmarks on Google Maps
- X-Maps mashes up a database of rivers, mountains, hotsprings, water falls and other geo-landmarks with a Google Maps front end. The database includes 1.8 million records.
Here are some examples:
Crested Butte Mountain in Colorado
Little Snake River in Wyoming
Volcanoes in Utah
Beaches in New Jersey
Hot Springs in Arizona

X-Maps uses the same public database results that Clocations.com, but displaying less information (Clocations provides lat and lon), and not citing the source. Clocations is more elegant, and says that data are public, from the USGS Geographic Names Information System.
