Hillsboro, Kansas, USA The city has had thier own aerial photography 
made and are willing to make them free of charge and free of terms of 
use.  At least the lowest resolution which is at least 4 times better 
than yahoo and some better than google.
They are 2 years old - but not much changes in a town this size. The 
best resolution of the 4 square miles takes 2 cdroms but I don't need 
that kind of resolution.
