Orthophoto satellite imagery is something that has been supported by X-Plane for some time. However, this requires a large commitment of storage space and patience since imagery would need to be downloaded and prepared ahead of time.
This project provides a way to retrieve only the satellite imagery you need as you fly, wherever you choose to in the world!
This fork aims at continuing kubilus1 work and build upon their codebase, adding more functionalities to the program, updating the UI, fixing errors and updating the codebase to the newest technologies.
