I have not published any because I am not sure of copyright, but from the Ikonos satellite website, one can find many hi res photos that are better than the actual visual on google earth. For instance view Mt Pinatubo Indonesia on Google Earth, (if you can find it for the clouds), then view Ikonos picture of it. It's an amazing feature. It is not difficult. In fact, it's quite easy! I keep the terrain feature on an simply match up geographical features with the photo. I believe the Google Earth is the best FREE download of the century. It will be fun watching it evolve.
