[talk-au] Nearmap made Channel 7 news

[Stephen Hope]

Well, I understand the resolution over Rottnest Island is better than
anywhere else, so that ought to give an idea of what they can do.  But
I got the impression on the forums somewhere that they got that by
flying lower, thus requiring more passes, though I may be wrong - I
can't find it again now.

I noticed when they did the line about "you be the judge" they showed
a Rottnest island beach shot.
