This is pretty cool. Landvue has a gigantic picture of the Cornell University campus either from air or up in space in a satellite. Check it out:

This in contrast to Google Maps, which does not offer high resolution satellite coverage of this area at this time. It’s probably too prohibitively expensive for them to get 1m/pixel resolution for the entire globe (that would be 510,000,000,000,000 pixels), as it would take 1855 terabytes of storage. Google has a lot of storage available to them, but certainly not that much.
