[Qgis-user] QuickMapServices plugin question

[Tobias Wendorff]

I am not aware of a plug-in. There have been some hacks in the past to access the cache of Google Earth.

But remember: all this hacking and tweaking without using the official Google API is against rules and even against law in many countries.

Sure, you still can export Google Earth imagery at high resolution and use QGIS Georefencer or GDAL to give it spatial information.

Its awesome and very useful to have different sources of imagery etc to use in addition to existing ortho photos that I have access to.  My question, or curiosity really, is what Google dataset the QMS plugins access as opposed to that used in Google Earth?  I notice that in Google Earth that there is some nice new imagery, not more than a month old, displaying in an area that I have recently been working in.  I assumed that the new Google imagery would filter through to the dataset that is accessed by the QMS plugin.  Its obviously a different dataset, can anybody shed any light as to if the Google Earth imagery does flow through to the dataset used by the plugin eventually?
