At first I thought this was a project to simulate satellite imagery from OSM data or something. > This tool is for a sentient being who wants to view high-res satellite imagery of earth Landsat is what 30 meters-per-pixel? That's not high-resolution.

Will update the README, thanks for pointing it out. > Landsat is what 30 meters-per-pixel? That's not high-resolution. With the panchromatic band, we can get 15m resolution. But you're right with the fact that one can get images with better resolution on any commercial platforms. But even OpenMapTiles renders at 15m, I feel. Still have to look into some docs though, I'm curious.

  NAIP has 1 m/pixel imagery, only over US.

    Thanks, I'll look into it, and try integrating the data source with the tool.

I give it a coordinate and it give me a picture of the French and UK sea towns. That is quite a low resolution I guess.
