The European Football Championship, hosted by Austria and Switzerland, starts today at Basel’s St. Jakob Park, and we’ve released some updated Aerial imagery of the venues to mark the occasion. This is part of the massive 69.2TB of new imagery just released, and Chris’s blog is worth checking out for more information.

With England spectacularly failing to quality, it’s down to the Multimap Istanbul office to get behind their national team (although we do have an English-born player ourselves!!!).

Everyone here in Turkey is getting very excited, and I have big hopes for local player Nihat Kahveci, who scored the winning goal to get us to the Championships.

There’s just the small matter of beating many peoples favourites Portugal at the Stade de Genève, followed by the host’s Switzerland (in front of packed home crowd in Basel), and then back to Geneva to meet the always dangerous Czech Republic, who beat the favourites Germany 3-0 on their way to qualifying!!! So no pressure then!?…

It all culminates with the Final at Vienna’s Ernst Happel Stadium on June 29th.

Haydi Turkiye!!!!
