Word from Google today alerting us that they have just updated their satellite imagery database with new images of Tehran taken on Thursday, June 18th at approximately 11:15 A.M. local time.
You can get a preview via this blog post or view all of the new images using this KML file with Google Earth. The imagery come via the company’s partnership with GeoEye.
The images…were taken from GeoEye’s IKONOS satellite, which images at roughly 1-meter per pixel. We are continuing to work with GeoEye to see if we can provide a higher resolution update from the GeoEye-1 satellite, which would be at 0.5-meters per pixel, but this is subject to weather constraints
You can also find satellite imagery of Tehran via Yahoo Maps (via i-cubed and GeoEye) and Bing Maps (via DigitalGlobe)
