I have a wall that I want to cover with roughly a 5 foot by 10 foot
"picture" frame of a google satellite view of the surrounding area.

Any idea how to accomplish the various technical parts?
- For the 'frame', I'm thinking of making it out of pine
- For the 'glass', I'm wondering how big a sheet of thin plastic I can buy
- For the 'printing', I'm not sure, but maybe Kinkos can print it?

Have any of you ever created a huge frame and/or printing of google maps?

Can you give me some pointers to get me going in the right direction?

Your "project" is totally impractical and potentially very expensive.
Get someone to paint you a mural is my recommendation.

Plexiglass 5x10 feet can be had for around 200 bucks delivered.

Frame can be anything reasonable.

Epson sells printers that print more than 5 feet wide (they're used for
vehicle wraps among other things), so getting it printed should not be
an issue.
