Damn, those letters are like, 50cm? Impressive Google Earth can resolve that

To be fair most of the map imagery we use from google/apple/etc is from planes and not satellites

Ahhh ok yeah I was wondering the same thing. Still impressive.

I'm pretty sure spy satellites do have even greater resolution, only thing is that you're not gonna use something like that for a map view and it would be very inefficient, since those satellites certainly don't have the same field of view and would take a lot longer to scan the appropriate area, and are limited in number.
