High-resolution color space photographs can be easily found and seen on the Internet - they are in the public domain. But these are not just pictures - they are orthomosaics, which are real maps that can be used to measure distances with a high degree of accuracy. They are so detailed that you can even find your home on them.
Instructions
Step 1
Similar map services exist as applications to two rather popular search engines Yandex and Google. Run them and select the menu item "Maps". You will be taken to the map service. Both are based on space satellite images, "stitched" into a single cartographic space. The systems have the ability to work both with photographs and with a map or a hybrid image that combines both. To do this, simply select the appropriate item in the menu located in the upper right corner.
Step 2
Turn on the Captions function, which allows you to overlay the captions on the map onto the satellite image. You will see a photo map of the country - according to your IP, the system automatically determines your location on the map and the country from which you connected to the Internet. The inscriptions on the map will help you navigate and find the city in which you live. Zoom in and you will see a photographic map of your city.
Step 3
But a picture with a good resolution, where every house is visible and the names of streets and building numbers are marked, you can only see if there is a high-quality filming and a digital address plan for this territory. You can see almost all significant and large cities in Russia in good quality. But many small settlements have not yet been digitized. It is likely that if you live in a remote province, you will not be able to find your home on a satellite map. But do not be sad - on the other hand, you have the opportunity to visit Moscow or Paris for free - they have a card of this quality, of course.
Step 4
If your city is large enough, then zooming in and seeing the names of the streets, you can easily find your home from the satellite image. As a rule, pictures of this quality even allow you to see the cars parked next to it. Just keep in mind that pictures, as a rule, 2-3 years ago are uploaded to the public. And, if you only built your house recently, you may not find it in the picture.
