wow....amazing!.....

BTW : How could I possibly sees my own house......:D

This photos was taken quite recently I think. The construction works of the new Bangkok International airport is visible on the right side... Huge city;)

rattanokosin island is really greenly

Khun archstudent, The green island you see is Bang Kra Jao -> the green island with orchard in Phra Padaeng (opposite to Klong Toei Port) Another green island wouyld be Koh Kret in Pakkret District of Nonthaburi. :angel1:

The small lake is Bang Phra Reservior, the main source of water supply for Eastern region. :cheers:

the delta of Chao Phraya looks pretty murky though ... :bleep: :rant: :bash:

This is not the most recent one since this one hasn't shown the 2nd runway of Suvannabhum Airport.

:uh:

What are the dark green areas? Forests? Irrigated land?

What I think is cool is Prapa Daeng which is like a piece of countryside, seemingly remote but yet so close to the port and central Bkk.

Chao Praya has always been that color (or brown) if I'm not mistaken, it's not a result of human activity. Same color in Mekong northern Laos which is scarsely populated

That green area is full of fruits-farming, canals and forest......yet it's the biggest green area in bankok without any irritation from the world outside and modernization......:)

Urban!

Its not polluted, Bangkok lies in the Tropical latitude and tropical rivers are brown with mud.

and its more muddy than others because that river is filled with boats.

ok
but if all the mud goes out in the water the river ust got deepder all the time and wider too

cool:) i can see my house right there close to the 2nd airport:D

The New Airport looks prettymuch 2 times bigger than the old one, wow....amazing picture of the year indeed............:cool:

Description: This radar image shows the dramatic landscape in the Phang Hoei Range of north central Thailand, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northeast of the city of Lom Sak. The plateau, shown in green to the left of center, is the area of Phu Kradung National Park. This plateau is a remnant of a once larger plateau, another portion of which is seen along the right side of the image. The plateaus have been dissected by water erosion over thousands of years. Forest areas appear green on the image; agricultural areas and settlements appear as red and blue. North is toward the lower right. The area shown is 38 by 50 kilometers (24 by 31 miles) and is centered at 16.96 degrees north latitude, 101.67 degrees east longitude. Colors are assigned to different radar frequencies and polarizations as follows: red is L-band horizontally transmitted and horizontally received; green is L- band horizontally transmitted and vertically received; blue is C- band horizontally transmitted and vertically received. The image was acquired by the Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C/X-band Synthetic Aperture (SIR-C/X- SAR) imaging radar on October 3, 1994, when it flew aboard the space shuttle Endeavour. SIR-C/X-SAR is a joint mission of the U.S./German and Italian space agencies

that would be nice...

I think the long black thing ure referring to in the photo isn't Baiyoke II's shaddow. Its lake Ratchada.

Yes, it's the lake Ratchada.
Not the shadow. It's just next to Queen Sirikit convention center that in the picture it looks like a shadow :)

I think Rayman talked about the aactual Baiyoke Tower in Pratunam area....look carefully, u cn see the shadow of it...:)

oh... sorry :D my bad :)

This proved that there are so many infomation in the picture.
Thanks again Bagthier!!

From the night satellite pics, Chiang Mai and Korat are quite big and the light along Mittrapad Rd to Isan, Also the complete darkness of Laos.

Surprisingly, Myanmar's capital seems to be about as big as Chiangmai...:)

Bangkok is the brightest! :)

I'm surprised of Phuket though because I thought I would see it brighter than this. :(

How many swimming pools you can see in this pic :eek:

oh..yes interesting, want to know why there're so many pools,
may be, lots of accomodation facilities serving expats?

I wish they had a high res picture of all of bangkok (or at least the inner bits)

So many pools in Sukhumvit area....
I did not think there would be this many :eek:

oh..yes interesting, want to know why there're so many pools,

or maybe rich people's homes?...just j/k..;) They'r all for Hotels.

So many pools in Sukhumvit area....
I did not think there would be this many :eek:


why?

So many pools in Sukhumvit area....
I did not think there would be this many :eek:

Because there are so many hotels and serviceapartments and condominiums at Sukhumvit area.

:)

Really Pon? I would have guessed even more pools in that area because (a) of the heat in Bangkok and (b) every condo building, serviced apartment, larger housing compound and hotel that I can think of (at least in the central zone) has one :) Some pools are hidden under a roof or covering at some buildings:|

Those pics where taken back in 2002 or sometime around that like Hitesh said, imagine they were taken recently.....there will be more crains and construction sites than pools...;)

I thought Sukhumvit area has many pools, but in this satellite pic it has more than what I expected. :eek:

I got this sent to me from Chula Uni bookshop. It's like a street directory but w/ over 200 pages of sattellite photos. very cool ;)
Pity they blurred out the whole area around Suvarnabhumi airport

So they sell it at that bookshop? How do I order it and how much is it?

Edit: aah.. I should have checked the link before asking :)

Google have had Bangkok satellite maps service!!
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=bangkok&spn=0.161705,0.246162&t=k&hl=en

This is quite new satt image since the third supalai park and car park building behind Major are already there. By the way, why Major's car park is that empty?

Thanks K.Pas but,why I can't see some parts of Bangkok?

Thanks K.Pas but,why I can't see some parts of Bangkok?

I'm not sure why, atom. May be they don't have high enough resolution satellite photos...

Bangkok is better than many other cities, Kuala Lumpur, Dubai or even Singapore doesnt even has a clear resolutions.

I wonder whats the factor of google's decision of area importance.

It's free and paid program from Google. Just found this one lately. It's absolutely awesome. Sorry if you already know this program :)

Check it out here ( http://earth.google.com/ )

it's pretty update though with not that fine scale.

yeah, i download it last week. but my computer seems to run out of power when i make a request. any minimum spec? any optimization to do to make it run?

btw, i think all the images are quite out of date. I've been playing around many times, and now it starts to bore me:) Images r prolly taken a few years ago, o/w we will definitely see more cranes going on everywhere ;)..anyway, hot stuff from google, indeed

ok, thanks... seems like my CPU is a bit out of date ;)

Yeah...it's true. Those pics were taken a few years ago.
.....anyway I love it and it's a big fun for me :) :) :)

(I guess the central world office is complete in the program....maybe BKK pics are not too old :) )

..

just late 2004?, so 2005 is the most exciting year for BKK's construction!!

well, that program is incredible... maybe not 100% update but i spent hours watching major capital cities in the world. we can learn a lot from them, how they grow, which density... that is enormous!

would be better if we can them in 3D..

I think most of N.american cities are available in 3D :)

i love google earth but there's something cooler! hehe

what??? dont be mysterious man.. i want sthing to see the empty lands and click on it to have the title deed details. do you have that?

i love google earth but there's something cooler! hehe

Really !?! What's that thing?? even better then this one?

OMG, now i feel like i've insulted my nation...:S by comparing waste water treatment with a tempel, but looks very interesting an uniqe indeed...

I remember we used to have sattelite picture thread but I couldn't find it.

It was merged into this thread :)

Ahhh...I see.

Compared to the older one. See how the city's growing
:)

The most obvious differences I can noticed are Suvarnabhumi airport, Subway depot, Moterway BKK-Chonburi, Outer Ringroad.


more.....

^^ Especially the Northern and Eastern parts of Bangkok

some say BKK is in butterfly shape. But I think it's more like a gun, pointing to the east.

Can anyone tell me where eventually does Chao Praya river, flowing inland, lead to? As in which province/town/city? Thanks.

Nakorn Sawan

^^ Thanks.

They just updated Google earth, Thailand included

WOW! Thanks for the news, Aqua :banana:

It's very exciting to see many recently completed/underconstruction projects from above including:

Industrial Ring Road Megabridge and its road system
Siam Paragon
Central World
King Power Complex
Esplanade Ratchada
Q House Lumpini
BMA Complex Din Daeng
New Government Complex Chaeng Wattana
Impact Challenger
U/C Taksin extension BTS stations
U/C ARL and CAT
Numerous construction sites on Ratchadamri/LangSuan and Suk24

Unfortunately, the area around Suvarnabhumi Airport is still outdated and in low-resolution. :(

and high-res Hua Hin is now available :)

Half of Ayutthaya city still out of reach :(
Pattaya is truly boom city :)

I can recommend the new version of Google Earth. They have improved the 3D, added new ways to navigate, added street views and a sun which cast correct shadows over the 3d buildings depending on the time and date.

They did major updates on Bangkok.

The new Bangkok Airport's train station is even there too :D
