Satellite Imagery

do you guys know of any software that would take a satellite picture and autodraw a map of it given some specifications.

 

Not sure If this is some thing your looking for. This is a screen shot using Google earth. For more details you would have to zoom in and take a screenie. You can get state wise boundaries. National and state highways etc. Really don't use GE much, I'm sure the gurus here can elucidate a lot more..
Hope I'm in the right direction :-D

 

no not that, what i mean is (using that same picture for example) the software would be able to zoom in closely and draw out a map of the roads and rooftops and stuff like that which would allow you to get a map (like a travelling map). hope i explained it good enough.

 

Ok, Google Earth can do that. Zoom in. GE has an options for direction from ABC to XYZ.

 

hhmm can it autodraw the map? to have it looking like this http://www.city.ac.uk/marcoms_media/images/maps/northampton_square/northampton_square_map.gif ?

 

Ok, I think your first post asking for satellite picture threw me off.
Why not try yahoo maps.

Auto draw :confused

 

I'm sure there will be a way to get close to what you want, but all GE's images are copyright. You sure you want to do this?

 

hhmm let me try to run it again lol i want to go from http://ttcs.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/google-map-port-of-spain_hybrid.jpg without the roads to something looking like http://ttcs.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/google-map-port-of-spain_full.png . i am trying to source software that can take an image and produce that desired output, cost isnt much of a factor right now.
