Showing Old Imagery

Access Old Aerial Imagery Sample

This sample shows how to access the old Bing Maps aerial imagery and override the default imagery that displays in the Bing Maps V8 control.

Warning: This sample may break at any time at which point the imagery will automatically revert to the current aerial imagery in Bing Maps. Initially the generation ID will likely just need to be updated to point to the old imagery again, but eventually as new high resolution imagery is released this old imagery will be removed.

Known Limitation: When in the map is in liteMode, labels cannot be turned off when viewing aerial imagery.
