Satellite imagery seems cheaper than you might think though. I’ve had SkyFi in my favourites for a while after they sponsored a YouTube video, and they seem to start at $8 per km² for a new photo or $2.50 for a previously taken one.

He actually reminds me of Ben Doyle, who does write fairly interesting YouTube videos for Half as Interesting.

Edit: I’m sorry if you find this offensive or anything, just wanted to point it out.
