Google earth and Disney world

[PApassholder]

was just playing around on google earth looking at Disney world and noticed that google looks to have removed all people from the images, did anyone else notice this? You can sort of see where people where as the ground looks modeled. Does google do this for all public sites? Makes the park look kinda strange and empty.

It is the ghosts from the haunted mansion running around before the park opens.

Yes, it looks like Google has deleted people. But you can still see people on main st and waiting in lines.

Not sure what you are looking at, but I see plenty of people in the Google Earth images. Here is the MK hub...

Interesting, I’m using the google earth app app on my iPhone and that same image has no guests at all.

Look at the castle. Is it in 3D? If it is, what you're seeing are overlays over the actual pictures that make everything 3D. If there's an overlay over an area of the map, you won't see people because they were "covered" by the overlay. If part of an overlay hits a flat surface, you may not even notice that you're looking at an overlay for that part.
