This is very puzzling.
On a separate but connected note, if the Google imagery had shown a
clear entrance/drive/path or whatever, I presume that would have to be
left out of the DB due to copyright? Also, does our allowed use of Bing
imagery extend to their more up to date higher quality imagery on their
own website?
Just some thought that cropped up while reading this.
