High Resolution Satellite Image - Architectural Webtools - Architects' Workshop India
High Resolution Satellite Image – Architects’ Workshop India

Get a 6000 pixel X 6000 pixel (36 megapixel) High Resolution Google Satellite Image, with no labels, and download it on to your machine to play with as you see fit. This tool removes all the labels, and gives you a clean aerial/satellite photo of the site, allowing you to draw on it in your presentations.

Satellite Images are very useful to understand the site, even just as an aerial photograph of the intended site. While Google Maps allows us to view the maps on their platform, trying using the same images for our presentations are tedious. There is unfortunately no way to download a map, other than to take screen shots of the screen, and try to stitch them together. And all the while trying to remove the names of all the unimportant markers around, from small cafes to malls cluttering up the image. Not to mention the zoom level affecting them and making it one more step in drudgery.

All we ever wanted was an aerial photo, with no names or labels for our presentations. This tool allows just that.

Features of the High Resolution Satellite Image Tool:

  • This webtool allows you to capture a very high resolution Google Satellite Map Images directly from the browser.
  • Get a 6000 pixel X 6000 pixel (36 megapixel) High Resolution Google Satellite Image, and download it on to your machine to play with.
  • That’s a 1 meter by 1 meter when printed at 150 DPI, bigger than an A1 sized sheet. (very nearly A0). 150 DPI is the regular raster image printing resolution for Architectural Drawings,
  • It gives you HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGE as a SINGLE image. No more do you have to stitch various screenshots on image editing software. You can now get one massive image, to use directly into your sheets.
  • This tool removes all the labels, and gives you a clean image of your Architectural site; allowing you to insert either directly into your sheets.
