Good news - Google Earth updated Santiago images
Yea El tigre has images lol
I cant load google earth at work, but I can get into google maps which has the satelite photos option. They havent updated those in over a year. There is a VERY blurred section or sections of the photos where you cant tell chit from shinolla. and it ends 100 yards from my GFs house!!!(maybe thats a good thing!!) ha ha ha
there are section of the north coast that are blurred as well. I wonder if Google Earth has those same blurred images.
Alex if you get over top of the STI airport, and then move 5 miles north and east....is the photo blurred?...it seems all around Moca is blurred.

Moca has not been photographed yet, that's why it looks like that.
That's the greatest area of interest to me so far (every other place of interest has been photographed by google earth) and apparently, they are going to photograph everywhere around the Moca area but not Moca itself!
Ugh!
This update was strictly a Santiago update, because notice something about the airport? It doesn't show the gates connectors that exist on the western end of the terminal.
Also, in Santiago the HOMS still looks "under construction" on google earth when its practically finished already.
And the new image of Santiago appears to be old (eventhough it was recently uploaded into google earth) because notice that the Colinas Mall is still under construction there when in reality the place is finished and open for business. Also, I recognized an acquaintance house, but next to it the image shows a house under construction when in fact that house was completed about a year ago.
They need to re-do the entire Cibao with truly recent photographs.
It would be even better if they would take the new shots with the high quality camera they used for the Weschester County, NY or even the San Juan, Puerto Rico shots.
The difference in quality is amazing vs the shots taken over the DR.

You just had to burst my bubble Nals. I wanted to be the bearer of good news :chinese:
Well then this serves as a refresher to the old news. Now more people will know about the update.
aranoid:Great map Tiguerazo!
I estimate the aerial to be at least 2 years old based on the fact that my house was completed in November 2005 and it doesn't show up.
Also, can anybody locate Camp David for me? It is right around the corner from my house.

yeah whats with the interest in MOCA??? there is NOTHING nor NO ONE in Moca... they all left years ago...just empty pig pens so stay out of MOCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there is a huge plague there I hear so dont go near MOCA!!!!!!!!!!!!
they say Los Patos is really really nice...go check out that place NALS
ha ha ha ha
I own a property outside of Moca on the road to Salcedo via Las Lagunas and I simply wanted to know if its easily visible via Google Earth. When they do Moca, they will most likely capture the sorrounding area which is still blurred.
