I like that you can't zoom in past a certain level of detail (no annoying "no image" tiles if you go too close). Also pretty cool how Nearmap collect their photos. Sounds like a HyperPod is essentially a flying camera. Can't find any more info on them. Wonder how they got permission to fly these things around in city airspace. :)
