New year, new imagery
23 gennaio 2006
Posted by Chikai Ohazama, Google Earth Team
We're always trying to improve the imagery in
Google Earth
and
Google Local
, but our latest update is bigger than usual. Not only have we added extensive 6-inch imagery for many parts of the U.K., but we've updated the Google Local database to match the coverage we have in Google Earth, and (drum roll, please) ... we've added two more zoom levels in Google Local's Satellite mode! Now for many areas around the world you can see a lot more detail than you could before.
Take a look at people standing at the gates of
Buckingham Palace
in London, or jump
over the pond and see the
Statue of Liberty
in New York, and then maybe
drop down to the southern hemisphere and check out the boats sailing past the
Sydney Opera House
.
