morrisons cove = smell our dairy air
Any idea how often they update the satelite pics or how big each 'chunk' is?
We built 3 new houses last year. As a crow flies they are about 3 miles apart east to west. There is no sign of the house we started in march, or the one we started in june, but it shows the one we started in August, while we were framing. That pic must have been taken close to the begining of Sept.
Also, my house (a mile south of the 3rd) is hardly visible due to the foliage. If I scroll a couple hundred yds from there (south) there is no foliage at all.
For my research I prefer no foliage.
But what's up?
 

According to Google...1-3 years:

Understanding Google Earth imagery - Google Earth Help


The following link will let you search for a spot on Google, and select that point. When the imagery is updated Google will notify you:

They have only one photographer working for them.

Once he has covered every square inch of this country, he starts all over again :laughing7:

I feel sorry for that guy, but at least it's not as bad as the poor guy that had to run around and color in the entire world after color photography was invented.......
 

I had goggle earth, then it quit working so I deleted the program. Don't know what happened and there was no email address to sent a message to. It aggravated me because I used the program a lot. Wonder what's with them?

I had a problem with G.E. so I deleted everything and used the custom download. Download 6.2 version and mark no updates. The updates are what caused the problem. Works fine now!
