Google in the sky...

[Jeff Johnson]

I recently studied my property by putting address into google maps. When I switched it to photograph mode and zoomed in, I saw a new picture with pretty good resolution. I could see the tiny green chairs on my deck for instance. Where I grow was a blur, but distinct.

Does Leo have better.

Yes and no. Military and intelligence agencies? Hell yes, they can read the text on the newspaper on your driveway if they wanted to.

The local narcotics task force? Not so much, warrants would be needed and the whole aspect of if your a big fish vs. small fish/worth their time, etc.. So basically no.

 

[Bobby Stainless]

Yeah the NSA and shit have much better tech, but that costs money, that local LEO does not have.

Don't forget about these little guys.
Not as expensive as a satellite.

Have a lookisie at NearMap.com, click on the free license version then go to your area.
No guarantee that it will have a good photo of your area (it seems to only to do highly populated areas) but if it does you'll be surprised what you can make out.
Every year I can see my plants not clearly but they are def there

Actually Budtoker, that's a very good, and frightening point.

Grows will most likely be scouted via unmanned drones on the regular within 5 years...

when i look at maps on my phome i can see twice as clear and much more recient photo of my property also what freaks me out a friend was saying they r about to make an inferred version....

 

[Jeff Johnson]

Thanks for all of this...I tried Nearmap, but it was pretty fuzzy...

How many years have I been doing this...most fear has vanished about my tiny grows, but in the great northern US you only get one shot, and while I have never failed, we want to be careful.

google maps is weak sauce, idk about mobile version but regular sucks, zoom is very unclear, take a look with bing.com/maps
