Did the advent of mapping satellites have any tremendous impacts on the depiction of geography?

Asked by Nullo (22009points) May 27th, 2011

I have a globe in my living room that dates back to the mid-1940s. As I looked at it, I came to ask myself if, once we got eyes into orbit, someone found a gross oversight on the part of the cartographers. Big stuff, like misplaced mountains, ill-drawn coastlines, etc.
