Map Navigation FAQ
Where/How is the FieldAlytics Map imagery generated?
The FieldAlytics map imagery is provided by Google Earth.
Why is the Map is showing me older/outdated imagery?
Google updates their imagery fairly regularly, however certain geographic areas are more difficult to capture from satellite due to things like localized weather patterns. When Google offers new imagery through their API, it is ingested into FieldAlytics immediately, and automatically.
