Maps are from Terraserver right?
« on: July 13, 2007, 07:16:16 PM »
Reason I ask if they are and there isnt another site iwth the same name I noticed some ares in my area have color photos but I cannot download them in TF? is tehre a reason why?

Is it because they are not Urban? Check out 83541 Idaho and you will see its Color for that city yet TF doesnt download the color but the BW?

landvoyage was the provider I guess for terraserver? Does TF need a slight upgrade?

Thanks

Grant,

There are two terraservers.  

terraserver.com

and

terraserver-usa.com

TF uses the latter.  The former has different imagery and is a pay per image type of site.  Maybe that's where you are looking?

BTW is their a way to turn off calibration of user maps. Example is when I add a map it doesnt matter if I disable or enable I still get the colibration points on there?

Thanks

Did you try canceling the calibration?  When I disable a user map the calibration points go away too.  But I suppose if you are mid calibration they might stay around.  Seems like they should too...?

yes cancel the calibration doesnt seem to work, it might be glitch, nothing really important, just thought I would throw your way to look at. So there is no way to get to that Cached data from google on our harddrives? I noticed what you look at stays in a DAT file. ;-) Maybe we could import that data somehow? Thought would be wonderful. lol

No, you can't import google earth data, sorry.
