Modified: Oh, yeah - you can see the continental shelf and the mid-Atlantic rift as well - which means the water is clear down to about, say 3000 meters depth.....

Greer Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 The Google Earth pictures are about two to three years old - and different areas are in different resolutions, depending on what they could get from the image providers. I can just about make out my house in Nonthaburi, I can only just about see the apartment block I used to live at in Bur Dubai, UAE, and yet I can clearly see the two tracks of the cement driveway my brother and father built at my parents house in Brisbane. Can't quite make out the Bulls Head in 33/1, but I am pretty confident that I have identified some of the other buildings in the soi. Satellite images are absolutely amazing - and more than a little scary when you think about the implications.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
