Google’s Lat Long Blog announces another Google Earth / Maps imagery update in the form of a scavenger hunt.

Digital Earth Blog has it all figured out too.

Google has just added six new cities to Google Maps Street View according to the Latlong Blog:

“Now you can check out 360-degree views of Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland and Tucson. As an added bonus, the images in Phoenix, Tucson and parts of Chicago are all in high resolution.”

Google has a new imagery update. Hints and answers to some locations can be found at the LatLong Blog.

“Much of this imagery is concentrated in the U.S., Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, India, China, Australia and New Zealand.”

I noticed a lot of new imagery in that western US around White Sands. No comprehensive list has been posted yet.

I haven’t seen it announced yet but postings by mlc1us sent me looking and so far I’ve found:

Athens, Greece!!

More NW of London, UK

Portsmouth, NH (including Portsmouth Naval Yard)
Omaha, NB (thanks mlc1us)
Winston County, AL
Columbus, MS
Fort Wayne, IN
SW of Toledo, OH
Louisville, KY
New London, CT
Dayton, OH

More to come…
