Just to finish this discussion, I have been looking at Map Maker for Cyprus.
Unfortunately, whilst the map looks good under Map Maker, as soon as you use the map in a web page - yup, the map has moved. All the roads are about a road width East and North of the satellite image. So Mike, you may have the right reason but perhaps the guys who process the new images should look at the Map Maker versions if there is nothing else to guide them. Can someone suggest it to them?
