I've found a whole set of google maps which are quite amazingin terms of providing visual data which is current and often interactive. Let me know what you think about their potential. Can you add any more?
Here are some of them:
Google maps
[maps.google.co.uk]
Since google earth first appeared much has happened in the visualisation of data
Enpediax
[en.pediax.org]
Markers around the world that relate to all the wikipedia entries.
Note Trace
[www.notetrace.co.uk]
Notetrace allows visitors to track the geographical location of a bank note. Using the unique serial numbers on the notes, visitors can see the path the note takes and the shops/locations the transactions take place
Talleye/Bighole
[map.talleye.com]
Participants choose the place they want to start from and what direction they will walk in. The map then shows them what they pass if they walk in a straight line around the world.
Terrorist events and other suspicious activities

Students can use this map to watch terrorist events and other suspicious activities as they unfold. The map is lit up with bomb animations and logos of missing persons. [www.globalincidentmap.com]
