Download the KMZ file from the link below and if you have Google Earth installed, when you open the file GE will fire up and show these maps in “Temporary Places”.
There are 165 maps from the SLQ estate map collection overlaid on the streets they cover where this could easily be worked out (138 of them are placed).
The KMZ XML was generated from the estate map XML at data.gov using XSL and the refined by hand and then processed with further XSL to create different views or facets to allow you to browse the maps.
Firstly a bunch of KML was produced by a simple XSL style sheet and loaded into Google Earth. Maps were moved rotated, resized and placed over the streets and the resulting KML exported. Another pass over the data.gov set with a fancier XSL style sheet created folders sorting the maps by location/suburb, date, colour etc and copied in the updated locations from the first hand polished data set.
