Strange that the view of Devens airstrip, where we do all the autocross
around here, looked a bit familiar from the air view. Then I realized that this
was from Zone 1 PCA autocross 2013.

I can see my blue 914 and the other guy's red 914 behind his trailer. The
Zone1 guys have a tent with a particular design on the roof, so that stood out.
It's day 2 since there are fewer cars, and the course is goes a different
direction on the 2 days. 4 cars on the course.

Amazing pix those satellites get. I can see you in the photo... looks like there's a spot on your shirt.

Funny - what made you think to look?

I can see my black car (the 'BB') in front of the Westy ('Eileen') parked in front of my house (center of image). Can clearly see the 2 solar panels on her roof - (and 40 panels on the roof of my house) smile.gif

This must be a recently updated Google map …

Our new satellite could tell you who is who in a crowd, if you had a fairly accurate description of what they're wearing (and it's a clear day). The only restriction is what the government allows us to legally release to the end-user/client. The coolest thing in my opinion is the CAVIS sensor, which basically allows us to "remove" clouds and fog cover from images. Previously those would have been basically useless. Google buys a TON of imagery from us, so expect to see better and better pictures.

Using the link you can pan and zoom and what not. Here is a screenshot too.

EDIT: Just checked mine ... 'Eileen' is out front and the black sheep of the family (the 'BB') in the driveway ...

My red 914 is almost never in the drive. It lives in the garage with its siblings.
