My contacts with the Microsoft Map Team inform me that another update of imagery has just hit the map service, now known as Bing Maps (was Virtual Earth) http://www.bing.com/maps – this latest update includes over 12 TB of data spanning over 45 countries and some 248,000 square kilometers. Of interest to my colleagues in BC, Canada, about 10,000 sq. Km of .5m imagery for BC has also been added.
