Filing a bug regarding this seems to be almost pathetic, I don’t think Asobo has the leverage to get MS to making these investments, especially in places noone seems to be interested in. Still, I don’t think MSFS alone will give MS enough incentive to actually get in gear and start investing into Bing sat maps again. I was not able to notice any imagery improvements for most parts of Europe during the past decade and fully expecting Microsoft to shut down that service for good when suddenly FS20 was announced.
Road vector data are more recent, so on more recently built freeways cars are driving on piles of construction sand or just green fields, new airports/airfields are surrounded by bulldozed sand (if they’re included at all).
In the Balkans for example, but also in places like Germany and Czechia, the resolution is not that bad for the most part, but the images are like 10 years old. Bing satellite images, other than Google’s, have not been updated for a long time at all for many regions that actually do have coverage. I am fairly familiar with Bing sat imagery since I created plenty of orthos for X-Plane.
