I'm not sure what the best way is, but the imagery on bing.com/maps <https://www.bing.com/maps> appears to be the same as what's available in the WMS service, so it's probably quicker to check there than to fire up an editor. I found an edge of the high-res stuff in Dandenong South (would link to it but Bing maps appears not to allow permalinks). Maybe they publish the bounds somewhere? Maybe they're going to do more? Dunno.

Still hasn't reached us, in my part of Meanjin/Brisbane at least.


Nowadays, what is the best way to track:

- How old the imagery is?

- Where the latest update is available?

- Zoom level availability?


Cheers

I can't see it in the suburbs of Melbourne yet. :(

However they are now marking National Parks clearly in the normal map mode (not that it helps us), and they seem to have a new detailed terrain model. The hill shading on some sand quarries near me is much more detailed and accurate than I recall seeing before: eg https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=88fab0f8-d07a-4f80-b6ca-d951776333be&cp=-38.130694~145.185322&lvl=16&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027 <https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=88fab0f8-d07a-4f80-b6ca-d951776333be&cp=-38.130694~145.185322&lvl=16&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027>

    Yes there is. Has also shown up in NSW and Qld.

    We were discussing that today in #oceania on the OSM Discord.

    Subject: [talk-au] New Bing imagery?

    For Perth at any rate, it seems that there is new Bing imagery
    available,
    taken this year. I might be a bit slow off the mark, but this
    makes tracing
    buildings far far better! I'm sure it was crappier last week.
