Did you know companies take pictures of your property on a routine basis from about 3,500 feet and sell them to the gov, insurance companies and anyone else that wants to pay for the service? Most of the time it is in the fall or early spring when the leaves are gone. In higher populated areas it can be twice a year.
I use one for work. The service I use has photos that go back as far as 2000. Others go back to thr 1940's. I can see the same image from four points of the compass, click to see building permits and if you are current on your taxes. The topography feature can identify land changes of 5 feet of elevation.
It can see any significant improvements you make. I recently showed how it works when a customer wanted to see at his home. The images are much better than google earth. He had significant acreage and thought he had privacy and was not happy at what those images showed.
Don't forget your county tax department or GIS department post google earth and building pictures of your property on the county website.
Think of that when you want to do something special on your property.
