| Google Map Update? | GrahamA | 2/5/09 5:00 PM | Does anyone know how or when google maps does their satellite image updates? (I am thinking specifically in Canada) Thanks |
| Re: Google Map Update? | barryhunter | 2/5/09 5:43 PM | 'As and when' It regually updates, but there is no published cycle. I think Google aim to have most imagery refreshed at least every 3 years. Google Earth allows you to find the date of specific imagery. |
| Re: Google Map Update? | jtannercc33914 | 3/11/09 1:56 PM | Three years seems a long time but it's still a good application. Now does anyone know how often they plan to update their street view maps. I'm trying to plan to stand in front of my house the next time they make a pass :) |
| Re: Google Map Update? | suecampbell | 3/17/09 9:47 AM | Here in Longmont, Colorado the satellite imagery is way more than three years old. The street view images are much newer but many streets, shopping centers, homes etc. don't show up in the overhead views and they are at least 5 years old. Digital Glo |
| Re: Google Map Update? | EFFshews | 4/6/09 9:36 AM | Don't forget that overhead imeragy is a version of intel. Google can only update after "The Man" has given the thumbs up. In canada, that could be the PCO, CSIS, or the SIRC. The BIX also has a say in it just because they represent a large amount of |

| Re: Google Map Update? | 1Bernadette | 3/10/10 2:23 PM | I was shocked when viewing my house on google maps photo- streetview and find a picture of me looking at the guy across the street with a 35mm camera taking pictures. The photo blurrs out my face, but you can see that I am standing there with an anno |
| Re: Google Map Update? | barryhunter | 3/10/10 2:56 PM | StreetView photos are taken from rooftop camera mounted on a vehicle driving down the street If its a picture taken by a person, then it will have come from a site like http://panoramio.com, http://flickr.com or picasaweb - you dont need a job with them to submi |
| Re: Google Map Update? | Guzman21 | 9/2/10 5:18 PM | Hahahah, I saw the Google car driving by on El Camino. Yes, I am Mexican & I was grabbing a bite to eat at a roadside taco truck. I cant wait untill Google updates thier Maps so that I can see myself in a tanktop & shorts standing next to the truck. |
| Re: Google Map Update? | tehterminator | 11/17/10 8:20 PM | I live in Ashoknagar Madhya Pradesh India and found that Google.earth is using quiet new.maps as compared to Google maps, any reason. For this |
| Re: Google Map Update? | lark47 | 11/24/10 1:36 PM | i also noted that google earth has updated my 3 year old subdivision, but maps has not. why aren't they on the same cycle? |
| Re: Google Map Update? | barryhunter | 11/24/10 2:30 PM | The technology powering the two products are very different. And possibly even controled by different teams. So they have slightly different update schedules, but for the most part work from the same database. |
| Re: Google Map Update? | peterthegreat | 12/23/10 1:30 AM | Understand that there are 2 different teams and two different technology to power these two products. Would be nice if there is a way to merge the updates for these products as we would expect for earliest updates, in particular, the map parts. |
| Re: Google Map Update? | roli8539 | 5/25/11 3:07 AM | images of parts of Europe are 5-6 years old, I thing It would be a good idea to update the oldest photos first |
| Re: Google Map Update? | lavalamp13 | 8/15/11 6:24 AM | Updating it is vital, particularly for users of Geoquake 2D Driving Simulator, when the road isn't there it's hard to follow it. http://www.facebook.com/groups/395715720724/?id=10150749827670725¬if_t=group_activity |
| Re: Google Map Update? | Vala_K | 8/27/11 7:29 AM | so, does anyone know how often the pictures taken from above are updated and when the last time was? Or is there another program where you can seach for an adress and zoom in like google that`s updated, lets say, once a week, omce a month or somethin |
| Re: Google Map Update? | barryhunter | 8/27/11 8:39 AM | Vala_K, you can use Google Earth, that shows you when a particular location was last updated. As for another program, there are a number of similar programs. But the dont update any more regulally. |
