Where's my house?

BBC NEWS | Technology | US military creates second Earth

So, do I get to build on house on Virtual Earth?

It seems like doing the entire planet in extreme detail is a rather large undertaking. It also seems, though, that doing so would have huge benefits to architects, urban planners, vacation planners, dreamers, people who can't travel, and any number of other groups besides military groups. The terraserver photos are one thing. But an entire 3D version just has sooo much potential. Just as long as you can some how avoid travel speed limitations. Maybe wormholes will have to be implemented in this alternate universe... ;)
