Review and how it works
Google Earth provides the simplest means to know the planet, by studying satellite photos and detailed maps of each given place. You will be engaged in a virtual travel anywhere you desire in the world!
The search option of this free tool is able to find any address with street, city, state, zip code and country, taking you to the desired place in less than a second.
If you need a hotel, or a local restaurant, want to visit a shopping center or look for a hospital, school, airport, gas stations or business - for example banks, just go virtually to the region and they will be displayed on the map.
For a deeper experience, the 3D viewer can be turned on.
A compatible GPS device such as Garmin or Magellan connected to Google Earth's maps can be a useful addition. You can connect the GPS to a personal computer, import waypoints and track data inside the program.
Explore not only the Earth but also the sky with all its beauties: galaxies, stars, satellites and planets.
