Thanks for letting us know. Based on the progress of the Coventry public realm improvements and this cross-reference photo [1], I would date the imagery as circa 27th March 2012.
In Coventry, as with the previous imagery, there may be a small offset. If you use Ordnance Survey data released under an open licence as a cross-reference, a offset of about -2.05; -1.67 is required (+- 1 as its very difficult to get a good offset) Regards, Rob [1] http://www.flickr.com/photos/coventrycc/6877675866/in/set-72157628026533825 p.s. A quick look shows that we have done a fantastic job of mapping new buildings with the old imagery!!
