Check for updated tiles


By gunderwood - Posted on 08 March 2009

How about a simple way to check for any updated tiles in a map? If possible, I would prefer to not have to select anything. Just load a map, click check for updated tiles, and it checks every tile in the map for an updated one from TerraSeverUSA.

Terraserver does not have an interface to tell if a tile is updated, only if it exists.

And I could be wrong, but I don't believe that any tiles have been updated in TerraServer since BackCountry Navigator has been available. Exception was the major change, a few years back, of making urban tiles available.

I can see the need, but it may be more advantageous to bring in more map sources than to look for updates on TerraServer.
