Geolocation images are fuzzy

Probably an old complaint: Geolocated images in SU are too fuzzy to be usable, at least within 20sf or so. I was trying to capture a Ukrainian field but it really doesn’t matter where. FWIW, Placemaker is little better from Digital Globe images, which is not SU’s fault, obviously.
Are there any plans to update this library?
I would up downloading a generic meadow from the 3D Warehouse.

It’ll help if you post the location and a screenshot of what the field looks like in SketchUp. There is now higher resolution Bing Imagery but that may not be available in all locations.


Here it is…

What is your setting for ‘Open GL’ under preferences. Are you using ‘Maximum Texture size’?

I just set it on but didn’t see any difference. Do I need to reload the terrain?

It currently uses bing for the satellite imagery - make sure you choose the highest resolution.
But if bing don’t have very high resolution imagery for the area that you want , then it will still be blurry

Oh, since I still have the last Desktop version, I don’t have access to Bing images, just Digital Globe. Guess I’m stuck with it then. It’s odd the preview comes out clearer than the final import:
