Google Earth?

Post by Kaoru Hanabishi »

Tried it yet? Is pretty interesting you can see your own roof. XD All you need to do is type your post code, postal number, location name, country etc... it zooms right to that spot.

It's accurate mostly at area with high population mainly, updated more frequently so some might be years old pics. Has 3D models on some areas plain but is pretty ok, though some buildings have 3D pictures for you to fly around it.

That is like so old.
Yeah, you were right about me, but can I get myself out from underneath this guilt that will crush me? in the choir, I saw our sad Messiah he was bored and tired of my laments

Google earth is a really nice tool, that is awesome if you're into learning about the geology and populations and stuff of earth.
However, Its not always a stable program. I know at least that when I used it, back when it was new and stuff, It ould occassionaly lag out a PC and maeke it not load. This could be most liekly attributed to it being downloaded from a remote server every time it loaded the PC... but still...
In any case, its awesome. If i cared more, I'd use it.

I've found small places in Iraq that had what coulda been terrorists :o
Its hard though to find people in the pics, I think they edit them out :(

Yes *Laughs evilly* Good use.

But serriously, that'd be an awesome addition to google earth.. Infrared, or X ray.. Se Inside buildings and stuff.
