topic Bing Maps Curiosity in Data Management Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/bing-maps-curiosity/m-p/295537#M16938 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have found a curious issue with the Bing Basemaps (Hybrid). If one pans to the Iraq-Jordan border, with the bing hybrid basemap, and zooms to 1:900,000 scale, make a note of the position of the border, if you zoom to under 1:866,000 the border shifts 10.3km to the east.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Why is this? I guess it is a bad correlation between raster satellite data as the image source changes through zooming. Any thoughts?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 22 Mar 2011 00:44:05 GMT SimonKettle 2011-03-22T00:44:05Z Bing Maps Curiosity https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/bing-maps-curiosity/m-p/295537#M16938 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have found a curious issue with the Bing Basemaps (Hybrid).
