I've been playing with google and I just tried terraserver. The terraserver photos appear to be B&W whereas the google images are color.

Google's resolution varies from area to area, but is generally 1 or 2 feet for urban areas. Can't remember the resolution for rural areas, but I am able to see pipelines, creeks, and roads in the area I hunt (Polk county, TX). I found my house in Google. I think the resolution is 2 feet. I can easily make out the sidewalk in the front yard, but not the swingset in the back. As usual, my neighbor's car is parked in front of my house.
