Your Nearest Power Plants on Google Maps

Wo ist das nächste Atomkraftwerk?

This Google Maps application lets you find the location of the nearest nuclear power plants to your home.

When you first load the map your location is automatically detected and lines are drawn on the map from your location to the nearest nuclear power stations. If you click on any of the marked power stations on the map you can view its age and its distance from your home.

The site is in German but even if you can't speak the language it is very easy to work out which of the figures is the age of the power station and which is the distance.
