image capture
Capturing images is now avaiable, it is absolutely great option but only to some extend. Will it be possible in the future for example to capture entire city area with maximum zoom with one click?
Hi,
That sounds like a cool idea but isn’t something we will be supporting. We would have to tile together lot’s of other images from Google Maps in order to create an image at that zoom level. This would result in a very large image file and would be quite difficult to do.
If you find an alternative solution, please let us know.
Thanks!

Hi,
You're right, extending the dimensions would allow you to export more of a city at a given zoom level. The problem on our end is that the file size gets very large. Also, it's very resource intensive to export larger image sizes. In experimenting with the size we exported 2000x2000px @3x images that exceeded 20MB and took over a minute to generate.
This is still a "beta" feature and we will continue to work on making this better. We may be able to increase the size in the future.

Wouldn't it be possible to extend the dimensions?
