New and Total Bird's Eye Coverage

The detail map above displays the total coverage of Bird's Eye imagery that is live on Bing Maps!

ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS OF THE RELEASE:

The Bird's Eye map mode is composed of three data types:

Native Bird's Eye scenes are the original oblique aerial photos that are accessed individually at the highest zoom levels. This imagery captured at a 45 degree angled perspective provides incredible detail, particularly of buildings and landmarks.
Bird's Eye Oblique Mosaics are original oblique aerial photos that have been merged together to form a seamless image layer.
Oblique projected aerial is comprised of nadir (or top-down) photography projected onto a digital terrain model at a 45 degree angle to provide topological depth perception where Bird's Eye data is not available.
