HeyWhatsThat has also just launched a testbed for the main panoramic profile page. The new page allows the user to view two independently adjustable profiles. This allows the user to compare options. The new options allow you to add horizontal and vertical scale, see lines of sight or view a great circle (or geodesic) path.
