Importing GIS Data into Google Earth Pro
2009-04-21 23:19:00 I was looking for some free GIS Data to import into Google Earth Pro for a classroom demo. I found this very cool somewhat free site for GIS Data at http://data.geocomm.com/catalog-/ For this demo I downloaded the ?Current County and Equivalent Shapefile? at http://data.geocomm.com/catalog-/US/61089/group214.html, of course you could download The County Shapefile for any state.

Still, read on for more details, which confirm that the lost city of Atlantis is, alas, still lost.

Descubren un navío español del siglo XIX con Google Earth
2009-02-11 16:40:00 Además de para observar cualquier rincón del planeta con todo lujo de detalles mientras estamos comódamente sentados delante de nuestros ordenadores, Google Earth se está revelando como una magnífica herramienta para localizar a personas en situaciones delicadas y hasta para encontrar tesoros ocultos desde hace cientos de años. Al menos eso es lo que asegura Nathan Smith, un músico de Los Angeles que unos días atrás, mientras observaba a vista de pájaro Aransas Pass, un canal de agua marina del estado norteamericano de Texas que separa las islas Mustang y St. Joseph, descubrió una forma extraña cerca de Barketine Creek que cree firmemente que se corresponde con los restos de una goleta española que fue hundida en 1822 en El Refugio. Tras consultar con varios expertos, Smith considera que el valor actual del navío y de los objetos que pueda contener asciende a unos 3.000 millones de dólares. Tan seguro está de su descubrimiento que ha contratado a un bufete de abogados para que le ...

Disney Reaches New Dimension With Google Earth 3-D Experience
2008-06-06 22:33:00 Tech News World has a great story about how the Walt Disney company teamed up with Google Earth to create a virtual Walt Disney World that guests can visit online, before they hit the parks!Walt Disney World Resort in 3-D lets you zoom through all four Disney World Orlando theme parks and get detailed looks at the company's nearly two dozen accompanying hotels and resorts. You can speed down the streets, fly by the rides, and even stop to rest at a park bench or souvenir shop -- all visible on the Google Earth system. "It wasn't enough to model the nearly 5,000 structures within the park, so Disney included significant amounts of real-world objects such as a monorail, picnic tables, benches, streetlights, signs and trees -- lots of trees, as in thousands of them!" Google Earth Product Manager Bruce Polderman exclaims in his development blog. The detail is so fine, you can even read the text on menus in some of the parks' restaurants.

MASHUP ALERT: GOOGLE EARTH GETS GOOGLE NEWS
2008-05-20 23:33:00 This brings some new meaning to the idea of local news: Google has added a new layer to Google Earth that shows Google News related to the area shown on the screen. The search company announced the addition on its Lat Long blog about geographic matters. Google Earth now can show Google News.(Credit: Google) "By spatially locating the Google News' constantly updating index of stories from more than 4,500 news sources, Google Earth now shows an ever-changing world of human activity as chronicled by reporters worldwide," said Google product manager Brandon Badger. I've been a fan of geotagging photos, but clearly the trend is much broader than that. The Internet has made global news a reality, but there are several efforts under way to meet the demand for local news, too. Google News can be customized to show headlines from a given city, state, or ZIP code, and MetaCarta overlays links to local news on a Google map. Google Earth is software that shows the planet, letting p...
