Bird's Eye
I just discovered the other day, that Multimap have added a wonderful Bird’s Eye view to their maps.
It basically means the photos are taken from an angle, rather than directly above – see the examples next to this.
I find this much easier to recognise and understand, but of course it means some objects are invisible because they’re obscured by other objects.
Our house looks pretty much as it did when we bought it in the summer of 2007, and our car is not there.
On the other hand, there’s a car that looks a lot like ours in two places: In front of our old flat in Rose Street, and in front of Phyllis’s parents’ house.
Funny how it makes Scotland look like a sunny place, by the way.
