What is the best website to see “close to date” photos of you hunting lease. Only one I use is weather.com and bing and it does not show the food plots we put in almost 2 years ago. What is a good website that doesn’t require a bunch of down loads and is fairly up to date FO FREE of course.
Thanks

It does require free downloads, but I use google earth a heck of a lot...and a lot of the images are within the last year or so...

Google earth is one of the coolest computer programs ever.
You can fricking take virtual road trips through Siberia if you want. Or the middle of Baghdad. Or the bottom of the ocean. Or your deer lease. AND ITS FREE

Tell me how.
I use Google Earth all the time and I love it.

Google earth and bing maps use different feeds so check between both for which is most up to date for the area you are in.

Google earth is awesome! And the measuring tool is crazy accurate to the foot!

Street view man. Just get on the street view wherever you want and click away

I use that all the time to measure how far I shot a deer on a pipeline.

One of my good buddies who's a landman got me a nice arial of our place, I think they can get them pretty up to date easily
Looks like the state of Nevada upside down

A lot of states have really nice aerials they use for mapping and GIS but I can't remember how to get to them though I'm pretty sure it was free to attain
I just to work alongside a GIS group and they helped me get a really nice aerial that was way nicer than the google version

Probably aerials, just not satellite. You know those google images aren't full resolution. Back in my mapping days we would go access the original DOQQ negatives (big 9x9s I think). You could produce MUCH higher res images with those than what was supplied on Atlas, etc... My boss used to say you could read license plate numbers with the resolution on the DOQQs.

companies like Google and Bing have companies like ours contracted for aerial photography. @ 6000' our imagery has a resolution of 1/4' Pixel resolution.
Each image is over 1 gigabyte.

Damn. That's awesome. What format do y'all shoot in?
And how would one go about attaining the full res images from google? Do I have to buy one of their servers?
