Is it supposed to be low resolution?

Correct, it's a newer, but lower resolution, satellite pass.  So not easy to pick out construction details.  For that reason, I would disagree with the OP on it being the "best".

Where does this Maxar imagery come from? It looks very cool when looking at Greenville, NC, but I want to see it on multiple platforms and Maxar is telling me to make an account so I can gain access and I think that is bs.

When looking at videos like this, this is some epic move that he did. It indeed does have higher frequency and is more accurate than Google Earth!!  :clap:

I'm sure he has more videos of the timelapses. I mailed him that if he can do more...
