Excellent post @tomlaut1980! (Just a qucik note for anyone else copy and pasting those co-ordinates from the above post into Google Maps, make sure you replace the commas with decimal points and the locations will show up for you)
Lord Howe Island’s lagoon has been updated with WU7. Find it by flying from YLHI:
Unfortunately WU8 has reduced water masking. For example in the caribbean: St. Lucia used to have beautiful water masking around Hewanorra airport, it appears to be gone now. Has anyone noticed that as well?
I saw the date of that file on my hard drive and was stunned that two world updates went by without any new water masks. I thought maybe some of them were streamed online, but I guess not. Thanks.
A HUGE Thanks to all of the posts and pictures here on this topic. I jumped into the Bora BoraDiscovery Flight the other day and just totally fell in love with the highly detailed turquoise water, reefs and island all the while landing and taking off from the water in the Textron Aviation Cessna 172 Skyhawk. I wanted to find and fly to other island destinations where the photogrammetry has been done and provides you with the same exquisite turquoise blue water, reefs and island. Now I’ve found this thread with all of these great locations to check out! I’m so excited, thanks again everyone.
