    @EVANGELIA-3302

    Thanks for reaching out to us! It seems you want to get the capture date of a specific location.

    Bing Maps keeps only one set of imagery, and it is stitched together like a blanket that wraps the earth. This means all imagery has a date range, not a date and as noted, as you mentioned, you want a year, but in the response, Bing Maps can only provide a range, sometimes, it may be across a year.

    One way to get this information is when browsing bing.com maps. If you enable the developer tools in your browser, you can find the "x-ve-tilemeta-capturedatesrange" tag in the response headers with a tile date range. For example: https://t.ssl.ak.tiles.virtualearth.net/tiles/a... Headers: x-ve-tilemeta-capturedatesrange 8/18/2014-8/18/2014

    In case you need more information for this meta data -

    I hope this helps.
