Have you checked Google Earth lately? Well, I still haven’t but I have seen the new Google Maps a month or two ago…and I am quite happy with what I saw.
The old version of this satellite imagery of earth took me to disappointment why? I cannot see out house! Darn it. Back then the place where our house was (the whole town actually) is blurred and dark. And it is very frustrating to see this after spending some time searching your way through Google Earth to find the spot (I don’t know the exact coordinates)
After a long time I have came across Google Maps to find out that I can now see our house! Yey! (14.832544, 120.735009) It’s a bit blurred but its better than cannot be found at all.
But then there’s more… With GeoEye-1 taking its first pictures of the earth for Google and the US government, we can expect better resolutions soon. Better to the point that we can almost read a newspaper headline from the picture taken by the satellite. Technology man!
Well… this is your friendly neighborhood web developer and… I can now see our house with Google!!!
