I see what you're saying, and I think it's a combination of both effects 
that are affecting the image.

Regarding the resolution of the map, this flyover animation has a much 
higher-res map:

but the .wmv compression artifacts were even worse than the .jpg 
artifacts in the still pictures I posted.    In larger .png images the 
cubes look much sharper and easy to recognise as well - but at least for 
a first pass I wanted to spare people the bandwidth.  Hopefully I'll 
incorporate people's suggestions and post a less compressed version of 
whatever the best approach might be.
