openstreetmaps ftw. Get that, turn on cartographic overlays (outdated scans but still useful), aerial imagery, download and import nhd data, pull up ngs website, and enjoy. Help us map rivers! Even better if you can do an actual ground survey w/ gps.

Okay what is nhd and ngs? When I'm horny for aerial imagery, I'm usually browsing Landsat and Sentinel archives.

National hydrography dataset and national geodetic survey (but I actually meant USGS, they provide a lot of data, their map viewer is a good introduction).

Oh thank you very much. Yes, the map viewer I often use, although I've only touched Landsat and Sentinel imagery.
