I was working on quote for the Grand River Conservation Authority, so I went to their website www.grandriver.ca. While there I found they had a mapping and aerial photos. I clicked and ended up at GRCA GIS Data Download Tool. I played with it a bit zoomed in this-a-way and that-a-way. Found our house in the aerial view. This photo was apparently taken in early spring 2006. My guess is that our area was taken in mid-May when the dandelions were in bloom. If you find the same area on Google Earth or Google Maps, it is of very poor quality.
A lot of the countryside is available at this resolution. Even Caledonia is of very poor quality on Google. But on this it is very clear.
