        The brownish areas are those covered by high-res satellite photos. The green areas have much lower resolution. Now way to make out individual houses in the green areas

        What I don't understand is: why the **** is it that they manage to surround Montreal with high-res areas, but they barely manage to touch the island at all (where most of the people live).

        Wouldn't you think that they'd try to cover the areas with highest population density first?

            True, but you couldn't make the shadows fall the wrong way. No way are the shadows gong to fall south, so which direction the shadows fall is the U.S.

                  KrazyHorse, you can try http://worldwind.arc.nasa.gov/ . I got great results from it for my neck of woods. Although, I could not distinguish individual houses and such.

                            what are you talking about? the shadow is correct, the original photo is the correct one and hasnt been flipped - the sun is always on the south side, so the shadows would be on the north side.

                              On the US side they can afford to water some of their grass. If you look at everything other than the bullring on the Mexican side it's all very cluttered. Then there's the bullring itself - not big enough to be a baseball or football stadium.

                                I knew it! I knew it! I was already about to make a half-assed joke that a country with decent environmentalists would preserve all that pristine brown.
