"Following the recent completion of Microsoft's\u00A0Global Ortho (GO) project\u00A0for Bing Maps, Google is now announcing updated,\u00A0high resolution\u00A0satellite imagery for more than 60 regions and\u00A0updated aerial imagery for more than 20 locations. As you can see below, these areas include the\u00A0Coca-Cola Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and\u00A0Abraj Al Bait, one of the world largest clock towers.\r\n\r\nIn addition, Google is also bringing in new,\u00A045\u00B0 imagery to 23 US cities and 7 international locations. Once of those international locations includes this view of\u00A0Bordeaux, France.\r\n\r\n\r\nView Larger Map\r\n\r\nCoverage-wise, especially if you count services like Street View, Google definitely has Bing Maps beat, but it's noteworthy that Microsoft's GO project brings in seamless aerial\u00A0maps for nearly\u00A0every inch of the continental US. This means the competition is only growing for Google, which is already facing pressure from the likes of\u00A0OpenStreetMap, Apple and Nokia.\r\n\r\nFor a full list of every area with updated imagery, head over to the announcement post here."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
