Digital Globe and Terrafly

Terrafly is from Florida International University; Digital Globe is a 
for-profit company; overheads are for sale.

The blacked-out images may not be Google's fault, BTW - there are 
occasionally blackouts imposed by DoD, among others, although WHY they'd 
black out archived imagery I have no idea.

The recent Russian incursion into Georgia had much of the Caucasus Range 
blanked for a few weeks... I guess no-one told DoD that the Google 
imagery is a couple of years old....

HTH!

PS:  Same imagery, but you don't get the "We don't have imagery for this 
level of zoom" (it just gets fuzzier) by using Google Earth rather than 
accessing through your browser in Google maps.

HTH some more!
