Google Maps
Just a quick heads up that Google have increased the number of high res images in their database. We can actually see our house now lol. Amazing detail too, check our the excel center on the Thames and you can see the drop off points and disabled driving markings.

Re: Google Maps
Was using it to check a route and noticed that there were new images available from the start point Just goes to show that they are still expanding the image library.

Thanx for the heads up mate.
Interesting how these pictures have only just been updated... They are quite old.
