Google does update both Maps and Earth.

For maps, they re-do it and update the whole program themselves without you knowing.

Same with Earth; they take some new satellite images, and update Earth. No notification for you.

I think what the OP saw was the Google "street view" photo truck. In a lot of metropolitan areas you can now get a full 360 degree view from street level. I've seen a few driving around Vegas from time to time.

For security reasons I thought they did away with that. You used to go right down to the street level, now your lucky if you get the roof.

It's still there. I just did a virtual drive down the Strip. All the major streets are now photographed here.
