I'm interested from a curiosity perspective, but I don't see this having a real impact on security.

Interested in trying it out, terrified that it will be used against me. #StalkerExWife

It would be interesting to see if this could be integrated with a PSIM Solution. Imagine having an alarm come though the software and then being able to see pseudo-live satellite imagery of the site via the EarthNow API. Even if it is hours/days old that is still much better than some of the satellite imagery currently seen by the public.

This would benefit us greatly for design work. Too many times when you go to a google earth image the structure you want isn't either there or is not up to date. Also the images from google maps on your iphone at least is more current than the PC version i found out the other day.

The potential uses of this are so wide, it's scary. I can already see criminals using this. Criminals can see real time how far away the cops are, if an area is unprotected, dark areas, stalkers can stalk victims.
I think the next big investment is in underground cities....

I'll coin the term "crime storm" now. Criminal activity will skyrocket when there are clouds.

I think it will have minimal impact on my day to day workflow. The one way I can think of today is having much more accurate views of my client's sites, especially ones that are currently under construction or have made changes since the last Google Earth imagery was taken. This actually would have been useful this past week.

Would this eliminate the need for Trump's wall?

This will be a positive impact on following the path of crime events. We often have situations (daily) where the perpetrator leaves the site under surveillance before the police arrive. Once they leave the view of our cameras or PTZ we can help police with such a system to help them locate them regardless if they left on foot or by vehicle.

There is a company called Planet who provides near real time images of Earth. This company owns a huge fleet of satellites designed in-house to cover entire Earth.
Planet
I am not sure if images the company provides have any value in the security industry.
