Distance has become meaningless with applications such as Google Earth, allowing us to travel virtually all around the world. The starting point is a user friendly interface and terabytes of information loaded in its database. From there, there are simply no limits. Thanks to its layers architecture, Google Earth is continuously growing with add-ons from users. Adding your pictures, real time localization (objects and people), flights, and many others, are some examples of the amazing potential of this software.

There are private, corporate and public projects focused on adding 3D graphics from buildings to the 2D basis. Thanks to this, “visiting” cities, museums and other interesting places without leaving your room is no longer a dream.

Obviously, it is also an excellent tool for looking at maps, and travelling all around the world in a few minutes is perfectly possible. The information is downloaded in real time while we “travel”. Therefore, for a satisfactory experience, we recommend a good internet connection.

Planning your holidays, re-visiting the places we have seen during a trip, or even search for an address or a place, are some of the things we can do with impressive Google Earth. Other interesting features are measuring distances, saving journeys, and learning thanks to the related and accessible information from Wikipedia, National Geographic and other integrated information sources.
Last versions of Google Earth include Information from the Space, with stellar and planet maps, and digital Information from satellites.

Google Earth is probably one of the greatest available sources of fun and information.
