First Google Earth is this awesome program that uses google maps, google local, arial photos, and 3d imaging to produce a very cool mapping, site seeing, research, find your local gas station program.
The Nazca lines are:
"The Nazca Lines, are a set of zoomorphic, phytomorphic and geometric figures (lines, triangles, trapezoids, circles, spirals, birds, a spider, a monkey, flowers) that appear engraved in the surface of the desert plateaus."
