Wild Distortions on Google Earth Maps

[Evo]

Wow, a bit scary!

Technology isn't always perfect.

In the case of Google Earth, complex algorithms turn two-dimensional shots into a three-dimensional program that maps the surface of the planet -- mountains, roads, buildings and all. However, at times during the mapping process, Google's algorithm has failed and some wacky images have been the result.

... and some wacky images have been the result.

Same with TV technology's change to digital. I've had some wacky ones as well; not to mention the audio.

Wow! This sure looks like a funny world to live in!

Did Salvador Dali write their software?

Lol! Sure looks like it.

I'd heard the infrastructure was in rough shape, but had no idea just how bad.

I think I'll stay off bridges altogether until the algorithm is corrected!
