Google maps getting even better resolution
Been really good already so this is pretty cool. Should be even easier to see deer trails. Pretty soon we will be able to see bedded bucks.

Re: Google maps getting even better resolution
The article made it sound like you should be able to view the new imagery now, but i am still seeing the same satelite view as before? I am going to re-read it

Re: Google maps getting even better resolution
I'm wondering if they have just updated some of the more populated areas first...
Also, my Google Earth Pro wont update, so I may not get it.

Re: Google maps getting even better resolution
I just looked at my land and cabin.
I can see the ribs on the steel roof.
And the detail of the trees and fields are definetly better.

Re: Google maps getting even better resolution
The first time I opened Google earth pro, it told me there is a new database and that I need to restart it. After doing that, it seems to need to download a lot of new content and is really slow. I'm hoping it wil improve as it catches up.

Re: Google maps getting even better resolution
Man, I can't wait to play with it when I get home!!! I hope some of my spots with old imagery still get the new resolution level.
