"If you publish low quality, blurred imaginery by Google and high resolution by others
you get many supporters claiming Google maps are not fit for any navigation.

You are right.
Local communities must pay for high resolution updates in local maps…"

Now sure how high resolution, highly reliable elevation data can be extracted if resource maps are of poor quality"

"BTW
In your presentation of elevation study you play with image resolutions.

Could you set the same resolution for all images to let us verify the quality of input photogrammetry for the discussed region ?"
