I hope this is not top secret information. So, now I would like to stop the search, and the questioning internally, by asking the same question here, I hope this is the right place, to me I would be happy to know how its done in details, how the camera gathers all the information and merge them to form what we see on the map, the globe. I came to know about MAXAR Technology, more information found here SATELLITE IMAGERY and some on Youtube. As a local guide, I felt like I am an embarrassment to my self, how can I be a local guide without knowing this type of information, it feels like a cameraman who does not know how a photo is captured, even though this is another level of photography. When I tried to search the internet recently I came across information that contradict my assumption. My question is How Satellite Images Are Captured For Google Maps? I used to assume that these images are captured using a helicopter or a high tech plane of some sort. This post is inspired by post based on The Camera which captured the First Human footprint on Moon - TravellerG. Hi everyone, I had a question my self which could not be answered for a while, which is almost since I got here as a local guide or even before when I started using Google Maps, I am sure everyone ask them selves this question but ignoring it somehow, that is why I needed to get an official answer, which I can use in future when someone else ask me this question back.
