Hi Imapr,

It's not possible to read number plates on cars or anything yet - in a few places it's possible to see individual people.

For a better explaination, please have a look at my post below titled 'Information about Google Earth imagery'

Welcome to Google Earth!

Thanks,
Phil

G'Day Imapr,

In short, No. Everything has it's limitations. Google Earth isn't quite up to CIA specs just yet, but give it time,

In the highest of resolution images the best you could expect is to identify the type of car that is in an image,and even then I think you would have to be good.

In the majority, colour and shape is it.

Have fun and enjoy.
