News is, today Microsoft released the latest version of their mapping application : local.live.com !

Among the numerous new features, I'd like to mention one, the Bird's Eye View mode. It basically is a mode that shows pictures of places taken from an airplane. It shows a tremendous amount of details, you can even spot actual people on the ground !

Here are a few pics I took :



The Boeing C17 Globemaster construction facilities at Long Beach Airport in California

A United Airlines 747 at San Francisco International Airport.

 

Air Terminal at Los Angeles International Airport
