New Google Earth Imagery - November 3
Google Earth has just rolled out some fresh imagery for us! It appears to be quite a large update, and rather focused in the United States this time. Thanks to GEB reader 'Munden' for being the first to let us know about it.
As is almost always the case, you can use Google Maps to determine for sure whether or not a specific area is fresh. This new imagery isn't in Google Maps yet, so you can compare Earth vs. Maps to see what's new; the fresh imagery is already in Google Earth, but the old imagery is still in Google Maps. If you compare the two side-by-side and they're not identical, that means that you've found a freshly updated area in Google Earth!
[UPDATED -- 3-November, 10:15am EST]
- United States: Colorado (Burlington, Glenwood Springs), Connecticut (New London), Idaho (Aberdeen, Twin Falls), Illinois (Bloomington, Rockford), Indiana (Goshen), Kansas (Pratt), Michigan (Jackson, Kalamazoo, Lansing), Minnesota (Mankato), Montana (Bozeman), Nebraska (Colombia, Hastings, Norfolk), New York (Binghamton, Oneonta), Oklahoma (Enid), South Dakota (Hot Springs, McLaughlin, Philip, Wall), Utah (Monroe), Wisconsin (Eau Claire), Wyoming (Worland) -- thanks 'Munden'
If you find any other updated areas, please leave a comment and let us know!

Eau Claire is not in Minnesota, it's Wisconsin.

That's my mistake about Eau Claire. I just copied the State from a previous line when I made the list to send to Mickey.

The Lansing Imagery looks a bit overexposed.

The KML/KMZ for the 2 November update is available, and it confirms that these are almost exclusively in China and the USA.
