Maps Downloader For Bing Satellite (formerly Bing Satellite Superget)

Internet satellite maps are easy-to-reach and very useful in certain situations, especially if you are in a strange country and you happen to need directions.

The downside is that they are only useful as long as you have a fast and stable connection to the Internet, since satellite maps tend to require a lot of bandwidth to load all of the required image tiles.

Maps Downloader For Bing Satellite is a software utility that enables you to bypass this inconvenience, by downloading the said images directly on your computer. Regardless of the country, island or continent you are interested in, you can easily use the selection tool and point out the desired area to download.

As it is obvious from its name, the application uses Bing satellite images to create the maps, which offer satisfying resolution and enough detail to allow you safe navigation through isolated regions and big cities alike. It also displays the name for every street, as well numbers in the case of highways.

Maps Downloader For Bing Satellite also enables you to manually enter the coordinates in degrees and choose the output folder for all of the resulting images. The pictures are separated into levels, each one of which offers your more detail and a higher resolution. They can be easily sorted by any of the provided attributes and you can select more than one quality level to download.

As you request higher resolutions, the file size rises exponentially and you end up with a lot of smaller images that can be tiled in order to obtain the complete picture. The application displays the approximate print size and scale for each level, as well as the pixel size.

Maps Downloader For Bing Satellite delivers a full set of features designed to help you download satellite maps for other GPS applications, or for personal use in your trips. The user interface can prove to be a bit clutter and not entirely clear, but it can be figured out after a few short minutes of usage.
