| Aerial Photos of Livestock Factories and Topographic Maps |

TerraServer http://www.terraserver.microsoft.com
The TerraServer online database of aerial photos includes many rural areas of the U.S. and Europe that happen to also include livestock factories. Although these photos are several years old, they still show the building layouts of typical industrial feedlots. (Note that TerraServer aerial views also include an option to view the corresponding topo map.)
TopoZone http://www.topozone.com/
USGS topographic maps of the entire United States! Depending on when these maps were made, they may not include industrial feedlot buildings and lagoons, but it's still very useful to be able to view topo maps online for anywhere in the U.S.
For example, here's a few livestock factories:Approx. 2 miles SE of Carthage, Illinois, 1998 [ Aerial photo ]
