Hubby says Indiana has higher resolution that most states. That is why it is different on that map.

I could see my Mom's house in Indianapolis in pretty good detail. Out here in the boonies, though, we could only get a map.

It's been years since I worked with planimetric maps, but I'm sure your husband is right. At first, I was thinking these images were from satellites, but some or most or all of them are aerials. Each state or even county is in charge of its particular flights. No wonder the continental US map is such a mixture.
