Google Earth and Google Maps share the same satellite image database and are updated together on the same cycle which is usually once or twice every month. Earlier the updates were every 60 days.

Bing Maps (formerly MS Virtual Earth) updates its maps roughly on a monthly basis. Other map services like Yahoo Maps should have a similar update schedule.

It takes months of post processing new imagery before they go online so updates don't happen faster.

Updates are announced to several Google Earth blogs. Google has also created a notification service from users can be e-mail notification when a particular area has been updated. See related links section for these URLs.
