If you want to dig more, I suspect Microsoft got a lot (if not all) of it from blackshark.ai . They're one of the companies whose logo shows up during game start.
I knew their name because, when I worked for an Airbus subsidiary, we talked with them about a solution to generate 3D environments for any/every airport.
They had some cool stuff but also some wonky stuff at the time (like highway overpasses actually being rendered as walls across the highway).
blackshark.ai was used for generating building models with textured facades from footprints. Their thing for generating airports was actually not used in MSFS. The photogrammetry from satellite photos in MSFS 2024 was done by Maxar Technologies.
