[digikam] [Bug 371485] New: GoogleMaps outdated

[bugzilla_noreply]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371485

            Bug ID: 371485
           Summary: GoogleMaps outdated
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.2.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Geolocation
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

Using GoogleMaps for all geolocation issues shows a satelite view, which is
outdated.
As an example, the satelite pic for Titanic Belfast shows the construction site
while using "maps.google.com" within a browser window, the (almost) current
situation can be seen.

Reproducible: Always

And you think that digiKam can control which map version is taken from
Google... seriously...

Do you have the same problem in a web browser ?

I don't know whether digikam can control that or not.
To give you an idea concerning the difference between a satelite pic within
digikam and the same position within a browser, I've attached two resp.
screenshots.

We dont have the option to select the satellite map. See the developer example
has the same older satellite view:

In digikam 5.4 the Titanic museum can be seen on the corresponding google maps
view. Don't know why, but this is perfect for me. Hope that is valid for other
locations as well.
