Google Adds Satellite Map Feature

Google has expanded its Google Maps service to include satellite images. People using the map search tool can now also zoom in on locations with satellite images from Keyhole Corp., a company Google acquired last year. News.com describes how the service works: "The new satellite feature allows consumers to get an aerial photo snapshot of the location for which they are searching. People can enter an address and click on the 'Satellite' link to view an area, zoom in or see neighboring locations by moving the cursor."
