Some places you get different seasons in Birds eye.  I look at that as more information.  As I look at birds eye of my house I have cars in different places depending on which direction I look at the house form.
Some places in Quetico have hi res birds eye.


At my house, there are different cars and structures, showing a 3 to 4 year gap between the highest res and a step lower.  Very spotty.

After using it more, the Bing hi-res coverage really seems to be hit 'n' miss. The Cache River area in Quetico is great. Most of the Bloodvein River in Manitoba is hi-res, but so dark as to be useless.

But it's nice when it works!

As I looked at other areas I could see what others are saying about big drops in resolution as you pan around. I was sure glad that an area I need to lay out a route in was hi-res.

What I assume is hard wood foliage really tells me a lot.

Yup. Wouldn't it be nice if we could see it over time?

I had never used them but have now compared an area in Woodland Caribou with the Google image and even the high rez paid edition Google images and the Bing image is far better. What I assume is hard wood foliage really tells me a lot.
