Yahoo and Flickr have added a high resolution satellite photo of Helsinki now. The resolution is as good as in Google earth, but this one is a lot newer with the Kamppi/Kampen shopping center (at the lover left corner) being completely built and the building that burned down in May is no longer visible, so the satellite image was probably taken some time late in the summer of 2006. The image used by Google today is about two years older. This is very good news for geotaggers in Helsinki. Now you can actually place your photos on the map from within Flickr, something that was quite frustrating with the old low resolution image.
