Google Earth and Censorship
Wed Jul 29, 2009 1:51 pm
I love it when you find a neat spot in the Everglades on Google Earth and part of the image has been edited out. Airport at 25 51 58 68N 80 54 02 83W

Nothing has been edited or censored there. It's 2 seperate images taken at different times from different angles. One by a company called LeadDog and the other by The Florida Dept. of Env. Protection.

Hmmmm. I know I've seen similar blurred areas on military installations I've been stationed. Certain "Special Weapons" facilities just are completely blurred out.

Isn't Groom Lake also edited on GE?

I see what you mean. The ramp area is deliberately blurred for some reason. I noticed this at other places too such as sleeply little non-military Massena, NY airport (KMSS) at N44 56 09 W074 50 44
Kind of silly considering that Area 51 and pretty much all air force bases are in crystal clear resolution.

While I don't think that its completely intentional on that area, It could be a DEA facility, especially considering where in Florida it is.

McGuire shows up but I know for a fact the C-141s I saw on it last time I looked are not recycling materials!!!
Usually the pix of military bases are 5-10 years old

The image of the Pima, AZ area is several years old - no trace of the B-36.

When you Google Yee-Haw it will take you to Hee Haw and you will be lost forever. Never find Austin Acres that way.
