Updates and new data

Currently there is no data from Norc about when and/or where updates will be available. The latest^[11] new panoramas were published in September 2009, showing cities mostly linked with ski resorts in Austrian lands of Tirol, Vorarlberg and Salzburg. In January 2011 the street view service for Russia was discontinued. Whether this is temporary or permanent, Norc Russia, operated by the name mappi.ru, does not specify.
