Today Yahoo! has added global satellite imagery to Yahoo! Maps beta.


The new satellite imagery will help people visualize maps, driving directions, and local search, and is available across Yahoo! and to developers through their APIs. Highlights include: Wall-to-wall coverage within the lower 48 states in the US; global images at 15 meters per pixel; maps and overlays at medium resolution for the whole world - The new imagery and global maps are available for API developers on the Yahoo! Developer Network. See http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/index.html and the Yahoo! Developer Network
