  • FYI: Google Earth updated and a Question

    checked out a lot of places, like Gold Coast, Singapore, Google has updated them with high res shots.


    Just wondering, how can I find out when they're going to take high-res shots of Christchurch New Zealand? Is there a schedule list somewhere?

      Yeah. They recently updated Baltimore

      Unfortunately their shots of Montreal are still low-res, and half the island is obscured by clouds.

          I did, but not thorougly, because the results seemed useless.

          I also went to the source, forget its name, but nothing on there either.

            This page shows you what they have in high-res (can see cars).




            Google also says that it can't tell you when an area will be updated. Oh well..

              If only they'd update Afghanistan.

                I wonder if there are any "action shots" captured in any of the photos.

                  If Google catches bin Laden is there anything they can't do?

                      Would they even care?

                      They already serve c-notes for lunch at the cafeteria there, don't they?

                        HA

                        Bin Laden probably is caught.

                        What excuse would America have if everyone knew Bin Laden was caught?

                            Alas, no hi-res shots of Ann Arbor.

                            But I did find my old house just outside Detroit.

                            This is amazing.

                              If one has the patience to scroll through South Philly, one can find the Linc still under construction and the Vet still in existence.
