Where does Google get the map data?
Google's imagery for Google Maps and Google Maps comes from a variety of sources such as aerial photos and commercial satellite imagery. Some of the imagery even comes from kites and air balloons.

Best website would be to use Google Maps or Bing Maps, but realize that the satellite imagery is on average 3 years old.Just type in an address from either and it will fly-to that location showing best available aerial or satellite images. With Google Maps you may need to change to the Satellite or Earth View if you're in Map view. Then you can enable Street View to see if high-resolution street-side photographs are available. In Bing you can enable Bird's Eye mode for a better angle of aerial photography.There are also alternatives to websites like Google Maps which include software like Google Earth.

How do you update Google Maps?
In 2006 Google Maps was updated to use the same satellite image database as Google Earth. Before that Google had to update and process imagery for both Google Earth and Google Maps where the maps where often out of sync with each other. Now Google updates its central map & imagery database and the updates are made available to both Google Earth and Google Maps at once. The time between getting imagery from satellite and seeing it on Google Maps is far from real-time. Once the imagery is taken by satellite, it takes time to process the data by a commercial provider like GeoEye before it is available to Google and other customers. Google will do additional processing to convert imagery into the format and coordinate system of its internal databases. This is one reason you normally won't find any imagery younger than about 6 months. For these reasons, the Google map & imagery database is updated once or twice a month.
