Photo scenery for Canada?

Recommended Posts

Is there any good photo scenery of Canada? I have the US and Europe covered but have never seen anything beyond small sections of Canada, usually for some kind of airport or city scenery. 

Looking for the whole country or as much as possible, especially the areas on the US border to avoid that jarring transition.

In my years of simming I have not seen anything available in large geographic areas like the USA and Europe.  I figure if there was it would have been out by now.

A quick look at a Canada website it appears it is not free to the public which may then be cost prohibitive to produce for flight simulation.

I have created the Maritimes and Southern Ontario using FSEarthTiles for myself. The detail available is fairly good. The problem is I don't know if I'm allowed to upload it and if I can it's over 150gb.

OrbX talked about that small sliver of Canda they needed for their upcoming TrueEarth Washington was very, very expensive. So I assume it's prohibitively expensive for any service to get decent, consistent data.

I am not sure if what I'm going to write is new to you or not, but if there is no viable photoreal scenery for Canada, the next best option is to use ORBX LC NA, which improves the landclass for Canada and North America. It is not "photoreal", but definitely better than the default scenery.
