Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X: Usage of satellite imagery for creating more accurate maps

I don’t know if this is the first time of using satellite images for creating more realistic maps with detailed 3D terrains in games, but it sure is a good idea. And, it looks like team behind the Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X did create the “real sense of authenticity”, as they call it.

Game will be available next week, enjoy the trailer.
