I’m excited to travel to San Francisco tomorrow and explore the city for the next few days! Here is an incredible Overview of the Bay Area, captured by DigitalGlobe’s newest satellite, the WorldView 3. The satellite was a remarkable 800 miles away over the Pacific Ocean when this Overview of the Golden Gate Bridge, the Bay Bridge, and downtown San Francisco was captured. The focal length of the satellite’s camera is 32 times longer than a standard DSLR camera, making an image like this possible.
