 This document outlines the detailed implementation plan for the Satellite Provider Service, which downloads satellite map tiles from Google Maps, stores them with metadata in PostgreSQL, and provides an API for requesting and retrieving map regions.
 
+## Current Implementation Status (Updated 2025-11-01)
+
+### ✅ Completed Features (Phases 1-7)
+- **Database Layer**: PostgreSQL with Dapper ORM, DbUp migrations
+- **Tile Management**: Download, cache, and store satellite tiles with year-based versioning
+- **Region Processing**: Background queue processing with image stitching
+- **API Endpoints**: Tile download, region request, and status endpoints
+- **Docker Deployment**: Full containerization with docker-compose
+- **Integration Tests**: Console-based test suite
+- **Documentation**: Comprehensive README with API docs
+
+### ⏳ In Progress (Phase 8)
+- **Route Planning**: Split routes into overlapping regions with 200m spacing (NEW REQUIREMENT)
+
+### Key Enhancements Implemented
+1. **Year-Based Tile Versioning**: Automatic tile refresh each calendar year
+2. **Image Stitching**: Combines tiles into seamless regional images with coordinate markers
+3. **Comprehensive Error Handling**: Rate limiting, timeouts, network errors
+4. **Rich Summary Reports**: Detailed statistics and metadata for each region
