Hi Toby,

What is your definition of "hires"? Zooming in on my city shows green

Bing)

the definition of "hires" used in this application is "imagery is available at zoom level 14 or more". If you compare coverage areas linked to on the wiki page, you'll see that almost all of them correspond to that definition.

I'm aware that there might be levels of even greater detail, but that isn't implemented...

Nice bit of code though.

Hi,

I have noticed mappers make various attempts to map coverage of Bing high
resolution imagery. Some drawed areas around the imagery and stuffed them
into relations, others created xml files etc. etc. (see the wiki page [1])
I thought that a world coverage map wasn't feasible with those methods, so I
took Martijn van Exel's Bing analyzer and tweaked in a way that it creates a
simple red/green map of hires coverage (green=hires available, red=hires not
available).
You will see that only a few spots have been rendered so far, but that is
due to the way it works: You must zoom in to a hires zoom level in order to
trigger the rendering. Try it out:
