Poking around Copenhagen I noticed that the LL and BEV imagery were shot at almost the same time. I guess the new BEV aircraft are doing double duty.
This is a good example. Look at the cars parked and the people walking to the bus between the buildings and the van pulling through the gate. Now look in BEV. All the cars are still there and the people have moved but are still in the same clusters and the van has just pulled about 100 feet down the road.
Cool.

Wonder how they pull double-duty here so well. The "satellite" (high-aerial) imagery is stitched together pretty well up to zoom level 14. Can we presume that's near the elevation they're flying at? Yet they're also going all the way in to birds-eye.
How do they pull off the angle for birds-eye at the same time as providing zoom 14 details? Maybe the approach gives them the angle (imagery doesn't look as clear at the angle), then when they're over the target they're around zoom 14?
