![]() ![]() ![]() Now you may even create premium movies with Google Earth Pro. Home users now have the faster performance that the Pro version offers as well as the ability to print images in 4800 pixels compared to the 1000 in the basic version. However, I would like to point out some of the enhanced features: The extra features contained in the pro version are, to be truthful, a little more than an average user would need and covering all of the differences are too numerous to list in this post. Google surprised a lot of people not only keeping it free but recently offered the “Pro” version free. Google Earth has changed over time and when they offered the “Basic” version free for desktop users most professionals thought it was too good to be true and waited to see how long that lasted. The name “Google Earth” might have been given a bit early because you may use it to explore the Sky, walk on the Moon, or visit Mars, if you insist on staying on planet earth, you can dive in the ocean and visit the deepest underwater canyons. To be honest, you are not even restricted to Earth. You are not restricted to a topographical view (like looking at a paper map) of the earth but actual photographs in stunning 3D. It is a virtual globe that uses satellite imagery, airplane photography, and street view video from Google’s vast database. ![]() Let’s start with a description of what Google Earth is. Change the time of day in any location.Many locations not only give current views but go as far back in time as 1930. Follow the path of famous explorers like Lewis and Clark, the Shackleton expedition, Hillary’s climb on Mount Everest, Henry Hudson, Captain Cook or Marco Polo to Christopher Columbus.Dive to the ocean depths, visit underwater canyons of find shipwreck locations.Use it to enhance your business, get demographics, traffic flow, etc.Take Preset Guided tours of interesting places.View beautiful user submitted photographs.Get close up views of places in the news.Use a flight simulator to fly over cities.Walk on the Moon, visit Mars or explore the universe.I am sure there are many more cool things to do while using Google Earth but here are some of my favorites. I am talking about the power of Google Earth. I don’t mean just as a mapping program because it is much more than that. Google Earth is really one of the most incredible programs I have ever come across. ![]()
