There is a development in my neighbourhood started 5 months ago, which doesnt appear on Google Maps yet. So the images are not that recent, although they still help quite a deal. Especially with location, direction and distance!

Visit oryxkenya.com and use Google maps to show exact latitude / longitude of the property.

You can download googlearth at this link if you do not have it. http://www.google.com/earth/index.html

Or if you like wikimapia, here is the link http://www.wikimapia.org/ .


How often does google map update their files especially the satelite images. I did some developments in Rongai last year August till Nov and yet when I look up at the image for the area, I do not see that development. any idea



The images in Google Earth (and Google Maps) are updated on a continuous basis. It's hard to say exactly because some areas may be updated more frequently than others e.g. big cities like Nairobi(just because that data is more readily available). Overall, most images are no more than 3 years old, but you may occasionally see an older image. BUT any google maps (even old ones) are perfectly okay to show location of property that people may be posting here at Wazua.

Fuchu - at the bottom of Google image, you can see the year the image was taken and uploaded into Google earth.

Generally google uses what is referred to as image library. This means once a client buys an image the provider achives the image and then google is allowed to buy the same at a discounted price. That means that if nobody buys an image covering your location you might never see the updates of the same. And if a lot of clients are buying your location you will be able to see updates regularly.
