Quote, originally posted by jeffgtx »where vibes are madeI have very little experience with Google Earth. But this Nummi shot has much more clarity at a much lower altitude than I can get say....looking at my house. I think for my home I could zoom down to about 1300 feet and see clearly but for Nummi I could go as low as 300 odd feet. What's up?And how current is a given view? My home is shown in a non winter season...ie no snow!

My home is shown in a non winter season...ie no snow!google earth is a patch work of aerial photographs or space photographs. taken with diferent cameras at different altitudes. This is why som places have better imagery than others. the images are within about 5 or 6 years old or newer... Some have noticed a few periodic image updates.
