No, not trolling. I noticed some time ago that Google maps changed their satellite view to include clearly manipulated images of the landscape that looked distorted and unreal (algorithm?)

The Apple satellite map view that I linked in my post is quite different than Google’s view of the same spot (tennis court) and looks like a realistic aerial view with standard tall chain link fencing around the court.

Where does Apple get their satellite view? I don’t know. Maybe the USGS map will show it. I noticed someone posted up thread a close up photo of another spot on the island that seemed more detailed and was marked USGS.

I misread your post, then. Lack of coffee.
Apology tendered.
