Travel virtually
If you have never used Google Earth before, it will welcome you with a beautiful 360-degree view of the Earth with a proper black sky filled with real stars in the background as per the angle you are watching the globe. You can explore the stars as well as the Moon. After that, you can either search by typing in the name of the place or by zooming in on a specific part of the globe with your mouse. The more you zoom in, the more detail it will render.
With Google Earth, when you have zoomed in to a certain point, you can view detailed buildings, models, roads, streets, rivers, oceans, and every possible landscape. Entire cities are available in high-definition that users can visit virtually and from any angle.
The salient features
Google Earth is not simply a digital map that you can use to travel virtually anywhere in the world. It also provides you with a ton of other features that you can use for your professional as well as personal usage. You may be located in one city, but you can access a whole other city with Street View with the application. A lot of major cities have the smallest details filled in as well.
Alongside the Street View, there is a Night View, Aerial Photography, GIS data, and satellite images available for the users. If you require any of these features, Google Earth provides you with amazing results that you can enjoy and utilize.
The 3D Building model
3D Building Model proves to be one of the most useful features of Google Earth for any more demanding user. You can witness and zoom into monuments, buildings, skyscrapers, and so much more from different aspects.
Flight Simulator and beyond
You can launch a Flight Simulator that is built-in within the application. There are more than 15 airports that you can choose to start your airplane from or you could alternatively launch from the current location you have opened.
