Microsoft has updated its Bing Maps (http://www.bing.com/community/site_blogs/b/maps/archive/2012/05/08/new-imagery-amp-streetside-coverage-on-bing-maps.aspx) service with new imagery from around the world, including certain landmarks. This new update comes with a improved Streetside view and Bird's Eye view imagery. On top of that, Microsoft has added high-resolution images of certain historical landmarks.

Bing Map's Streetside view has also been updated to have more imagery. "Since the last release, Streetside has published an additional 125,000 kilometers. That's a total of 365,000 linear kilometers of imagery available for users," Microsoft adds. Bing Map's Bird's Eye view is also updated with new imagery. Bird's Eye view has always been a fan favorite due to its high-resolution and oblique look angle. These new updates include high-resolution images of certain landmarks such as the Jewish Museum in Berlin, Germany. Check out the new updates at the source link below.
