OK, I know this has been discussed a couple of times in different
places on the group but I'm going to ask this question again to see if
there are any hacks out there and might spark someone's creativity :-)

Here is my frustration ...

I have a custom application that uses the Google Maps API to identify
locations. Once I identify a location I really need to know what the
maximum available zoom level for satellite imagery is at that specific
lat/lon point.

>From everything I have read online and on the newsgroup here that
there is absolutely no way to determine the maximum zoom level. My
question, however, is that why if you set a zoom level when you find
the location and it is something less than the maximum available zoom
at that location will it only allow you access to available zoom
levels?

I am going to take it because the Developers know what the maximum
zoom is and just don't give us access to that information. So, where
my thought process comes in is would it be possible through some type
of JavaScript to go through the process of setting a zoom level (say
16) and them programatically have my software attempt to zoom using
the MapControl to determine that max zoom level?

Hopefully this makes sense ... I know it's a potential hack, but I
believe is something that should definitely be made available in a
future release of the API. Hopefully the next one ;-)
