When we launched TerraServer in June 1998, we had SPIN-2 imagery coverage of Europe, Asia, and other non-US locations. Our lease on the SPIN-2 imagery was for eighteen months through the Aerial Images firm located in Raleigh North Carolina. At the end of eighteen months (January 2000), Aerial Images decided to host their ow”n web site at http://terraserver.com. Since January 2000, TerraServer-USA (formally terraserver.microsoft.com) has hosted only USGS imagery of locations in the United States.
