Whoever thinks of Google Earth as a simple software map is mistaken. Nowadays, this application is one of the most complete software for the 3D Planet´s images visualization, offering satellite images and different type of maps with the help the powerful Google search engine through the original stream technology.
The difference between the cartographic visualization software and Google Earth is that it features an original user-friendly interface: our planet. From this satellite space image of it, we will be able to see any place of the world, turning and rotating it using the mouse.
The most attractive option that Google Earth offers might be the possibility of making incredible zoom in to any region of the world map obtaining satellite images with different resolution levels and details as soon as we zoom in the region.
In this way, Google Earth allows a top-notch online view of cities, and even buildings and streets, but their quality may not be as good on low-end PCs due to technical streaming requirements. It´s also worth mentioning that highest image quality is available on most important cities and metropolis.
Interaction with the interface is quite simple. The sidebar is completely easy-to-use for those users not familiarized with geographic applications.
Just enter the name of the location you want to view, and Google Earth will take you to that spot in a matter of seconds. Hardware components as well as broadband will depend on the loading time as well as its visualization.
Google Earth presents an interesting feature to view different thematic “layers” providing additional information regarding the selected location, as well as climatic conditions in the area, travel services, photo galleries and more.
Another aspect to take into account is that Google Earth enables users to add their own information such as photographs and text.
To sum up, Google Earth stands as an essential application for cultural, educative and geographic purposes, and its success lies on the use of new satellite image visualization technologies. By adding new features on each release, Google Earth will rapidly become an indispensable tool for any PC user.
