Later I found that Bing Maps had an aerial photography feature that was much more detailed view that I again stitched together to achieve a large, detailed layout of our place. Viewing in Photoshop allowed me to adjust layers so that I could make various features more or less visible pepending on what I was planning.
The I overlaid terrain (Topo maps) and platt lines lifted from Google Maps to try to plot the boundaries as close as possible. To get higher resolution image maps I would zoom in to maximum resolution, take a screen shot and paste into an old version (7) of Photoshop and then match up each screenshot so the pixels matched exactly. I used satellite images in Windows quite extensively to lay out our property, mainly to plot boundary lines, streams, fire roads and trails.
