| 1373777 | 2014-04-29 18:35:00 | I enjoy using Google Maps for its satellite view quite a lot - mostly for navigation; but also for plain viewing of Earth when I have a bored moment. So I often wonder what date the images were taken - is there any way of finding out? |

| 1373778 | 2014-04-29 19:46:00 | They are pretty old, there's vehicle parked on my lawn I haven't owned for years. Also google earth although it seems to share the same images was not updated a while back when google maps was so it's even older. No Idea if you can find out the actual date though. |

| 1373782 | 2014-04-29 22:35:00 | That's a lot of flowers in Christchurch then Cic. Are you still down that way, or have you seen the light and moved North? | Richard (739) | ||

| 1373784 | 2014-04-29 23:58:00 | Occasionally when you are zoomed right in, the image has watermark of the dates - it just depends on the provider of the aerial photographs I believe.I just looked at my g/f's beach house and there's no watermark, but when I see it via Streetview there is - quite recent too according to the watermark - 2013. | Greg (193) | ||
| 1373785 | 2014-04-30 04:12:00 | You need a live satellite feed to spy on the g/f, google maps won't cut it. | dugimodo (138) | ||
