Mt Eden Prison According to Google Earth

Google Earth (which maps the entire Earth using satellite images and aerial photography) ends up slightly off course trying to pin down the location of Auckland’s Mt Eden Prison. Instead they end up with the Auckland Museum.
“Be grateful they are not doing target analysis for Israel,” says comedian Mike Loder, who sent us this Google Earth image .
“Well it looked like a rocket launcher…..”

I suspect, looking at Lebanon, they are doing target analysis for Israel.

Hi All Experts,
Does anyone use google earth images as ground image planes for use in aerial scenes. I know how to stitch them together but are there any tools or tricks to make sure that the images are at the same height, angle and such to make sure they stitch well. I know in the pro version you can get bigger images but im not going to pay for the pro version when i could stitch multiple images together…
