2025 Satellite Imagery Map Refresh
Today, Stadia Maps unveils the latest update and enhancements to our Alidade Satellite imagery.
This refresh includes expansion of our 30cm data, better mosaicking across multiple resolutions around the globe, and refreshes the imagery in our entire map portfolio.
People use imagery maps every day to understand a location in its “true” visual context: hikers verify trails in stunning clarity, families find their next home—with a porch and lots of trees for the summer, and travelers plan their vacation surroundings in vivid detail.
Our latest enhancements deliver visual context that’s not just updated—but richer, sharper, and more precise, tailored for every application.
Higher Definition and Clarity for the Entire World
Now, with 10x more 30cm resolution imagery available, you can see small objects, structures, and surface details like never before.
We've also expanded our mosaicked data and now offer 20% coverage at 30cm resolution, 54% at 50cm, and full coverage (100%) at 1.5m, providing even more seamless imagery for larger geographic areas.
Keeping Things Fresh
We're dedicated to keeping our imagery as fresh and current as possible. Our oldest imagery is now only a couple of years old. We will continue updating pixels all the time, providing you with the freshest, highest quality basemaps possible.
