Google Indiana

So I was playing with Google Earth today and I noticed that the state of Indiana is grey. Why is that?
My suspicion is that Indiana has more detailed maps than the rest of the country. When you take a satellite picture close to the ground it is likely that there is more grey than green in any given shot. The green on the map is due to artificial coloring in areas that are not yet imaged up-close. Any other guesses?
Mad props to Indiana for being well mapped. Woo woo.
