Google Earth has been updated!

[Dr.GrantSeeker]

Hey everyone! I check Google Earth daily hoping that WDW property will be updated, well it finally has been! Current date on Google Earth is 1/3/2018.
There are more updated aerials on this website, but it's still cool being able to fly around property looking at all the progress and construction. Just a couple photos from Google Earth of areas of interest.

Cool! Now if they'd just update some of the other areas. They still show bungalows being built which was quite a while ago really.

The stitching between maps and earth is really weird...Maps has the Poly complete, but the CBR construction isn't even apparent...

Looks like GE has finally caught up to Nearmaps and ESRI* which are also from January.

The last time I checked the Google Earth overhead shot of MK, it was taken while construction was underway in the hub a few years ago. Gonna have to check it out again to see the changes.

And now they have street view-inside the parks! It's about time, Google!

They just need the past single frame images from the USGS then ya'll would be in a treat

It's not showing complete when I look on my computer. But on my cell phone under the "maps" app it does. Weird....

Yeah, blame FPs and a conspiracy to make the parks 'feel' more crowded for crowdedness. No other possible reason.

They haven't updated the DS area.

They haven't updated the DS area.

Yes, the have. Did you shut off terrain and 3d buildings and restart GE?

is there pics of the gondola construction?

 

[MisterPenguin]

is there pics of the gondola construction?

Yes. Ground cleared and a few foundations poured back in January.

But we have much more recent aerials of the gondola construction in the gondola threads from bloggers.
