Looking at 1956 imagery, I see something that looks like it might be an amusement park southeast of Riverside & Berry. Since 1944, Rockford Map Publishers has produced land ownership maps for counties throughout the United States. Click the Search button beside the search field, and just like in Google Maps, Google Earth will. Use the search box on the upper left corner and enter the location you want to view. You will see a beautiful 3-D rendition of our world. You can't just go back and add resolution (pixels) to old pictures. Open the Google Earth program installed on your computer. The resolution might be lower if the pictures degraded over time in storage. Looking at Historic Aerials, the 1951 image shows both aprons are intact. But to my surprise, the yard was not only still used, there was a ferry docked at the remaining apron. That's probably the resolution the pictures were taken at many decades ago. I figured that this yard would have been abandoned by the time of the oldest satellite image, 1999, on Google Earth. I hear that a lot of people really like it though. It’s a new year, and we’re excited to be adding more great imagery to Google Earth and Google Maps.Because we’re often asked about the.
This site could be a spectacular resource, but for me the aerial photos are just too low resolution, especially back in the '50's and '60's time frame. By Eric Kolb and Matt Manolides, Google Imagery team. When I traded e-mails with them about that, I was told "what you see is what you get but without the watermarks". Originally I thought they intentionally degraded the quality of the photos, and sharpened them up for better resolution when you became a paying subscriber. It also looks like they've increased the number of watermarks too. By using a slider function, users can now travel back through time to see what places looked like decades ago. I check it out about once a year to see if the quality has improved, but all of the photos I've looked at are very "muddy" looking when you zoom in to a useful level. Google Earth/Pro Google spent many years collecting historical imagery aerial and satellite photographs from government fly-overs and other sources and has integrated it into Google Earth. I wonder what was located there and when?ĭoohickie, I haven't had good luck with Historical Aerials at all. To narrow your search area: type in an address or place name, enter coordinates or click the map to define your search area (for advanced map tools, view the help documentation ), and/or choose a date range. Across the road (looking west) from where it was located is a large concrete slab, which I'm assuming was the floor of some large building. That was essentially 60 years ago now, so that's not surprising.
We encourage you to use if it you ever have a question about any aspect of Google Earth. It was interesting reading! I guess that's where that park was on Riverside Dr., but now there's no trace of it ever having been there. Here at Google Earth Blog we get a few questions almost every day through our contact form.
