This may look like the side of a spaceship but it's actually Sir Norman Foster's Swiss Re tower - dubbed the "Gherkin" - in the City of London.

According to 192.com, the image quality of Super Zoom is three times better than Google Maps or Microsoft Live Maps.

The height from which you can view places across London is the equivalent of looking down from a 10-storey building.
