Aerial Photos - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

devous1 · 02-24-2007, 06:09 PM

I was looking at some vids on Streetfire, and on one of the side windows there was an ad for aerial photos of any address. I found this sort of interesting, so I started looking around at other sites but none of the photos I find are very clear (not like the advertised photos).

I know this is a little cheezy, but my development is only about 5 years old. All the trees are small and the development is surrounded by corn fields. I'm sure all the surrounding area will be nothing but houses in another 5 years. So I just think it would be cool to get some clear photos of our lot/home and of the development and surrounding area. Then compare them in 5-10 years.

Does anyone know a site with really clear sat photos, or has anyone bought pics like this off any sites?

There might be companies in your area who provide your service. I've know architects and developers who do that for projects.

You might also be able to find pictures on your property appraisers website.

Google Earth is OK at best, but it does show a little detail. Try it...it's kinda fun, too.

One of my neighbors has a helicopter maybe I will ask him.

I did go on Google Earth, that is pretty cool. My daughter has been playing on in for about 45 min. For some reason it will zoom on certain areas alot clearer than my hood.
