Here’s a screenshot of the file I downloaded as a test, note that is 15% zoom of the full size image: Still trying to find the legal fine print, but hopefully is not an, it is freely available to anyone that signs up.įirst try I kept the default settings, set to “GeoTiff” and got a MASSIVE tif file ~115mb… make sure you define a small area! Try doing an entire country and your download will be crazy big and will take forever to process, never mind download (the image below is the area around Vancouver BC, Canada, map zoomed in as far as it will go). You will have to adjust the brightness, it comes back very dark. There may be small errors in the image, I have a small pixel sized white area in my image, not hard to fix though. If you want a specific area and like me want it to be much higher detail than the worldwide file, then on map (link below) create a free account, then can create a rectangle selection, and it will process an image for that area and the detail is beyond awesome!
