Bora Bora - Water Mask incomplete

I would gladly take the mostly complete hires data from the existing Bing Maps imagery over what’s there now. And, I also assumed maybe they could at least use the complete lower res image in Google Maps to fill in the gap for the small area not completely covered for Bora Bora’s hires southwest reef.

Yes, fixing more water masks of Moorea, and the many many other islands of French Polynesia would be a really big improvement. Not to mention, the thousands of other reef waters visible from space around the world. I have to admit, it also took Google a long time to include such water masks in Google Earth/Maps. The imagery deals allowing mapping services like Google and Bing Maps to share globally are not free.

By the way, I’ve actually sailed in those waters at both Moorea and Bora Bora. Hence my particular interest in seeing it rendered well.
