For the wannabe bomber, the fact that the area has *also* been mapped by Google Maps and Microsoft Terra and probably bunches of others is probably a lot more important. Among other things, the average amateur photo does a really shitty job of telling you things about stuff like approaches, ramps, lane markings for turns, and where you can and can't drive a vehicle of a given size. http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=39.112212,-76.771844&spn=0.000856,0.001529&t=h&z=20 If the owner of that gatehouse doesn't care about publicly available satellite imagery at that resolution, why should Yahoo care about amateur photos? Yahoo may suck enough to motivate a car bomb, but the owner of the gatehouse is truly a world-class Hoover.. ;)
