if you look some sections are up to date almost.
My Old house in Portsmouth, you can see my old volvo and you can see where we havn't moved all the old paving slabs yet... that must be about 8 years old.. However my House in Lincolnshire you can see it notw, where as last year the mapping would not zoom in that close. I suspect they are up dating sections of the map on a daily basis. |

As far a I understand all the pictures on them are from aerial photos not as people think from satellites. I think the Nasa one is a satellite picture but of weather and you have to pull right back out to see the clouds etc. |
