Display a SPOT satellite image in your web pages

Using GoogleMaps Static API, you can easily display a satellite image from SPOT in your web pages. Actually, when using zoom factor 14 over France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Belgium and several other countries, you always get a SPOT satellite image. For exemple, here is a SPOT5 view of the city of Auch in France :



Here is the corresponding HTML code :

<img width="320" height="320" src="http://maps.google.com/staticmap?center=43.643902,0.590429&zoom=14&size=320x320&maptype=satellite&key=API_KEY" />

You can easily get an API_KEY from Google by registering on http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html
