We’re big fans of Bing Maps around these parts (the “Bird’s Eye view always amazes us) and today Bing Maps evangelist, Chris Pendleton, announced that they’ve just added 9,460 square kilometers of imagery as part of their monthly release
This month’s release showcases high precision imagery for the USA, Canada and the United Kingdom. The biggest drop by far was Greater Vancouver Metro.
Cool! New imagery just a few months before the Winter Olympics.
You can take a virtual tour of some of the new content using the Bing Maps World Tour app.
Note: Although the blog posts says it’s the October, 2009 update, the World Tour app reports it’s the November, 2009 update. We will try to get an answer.
Happy Touring!
