1/3 Got 3D?

#GoogleEarthPro is free software that simulates 3D. It can be installed on PC/Mac/Linux. In addition to the screen controls you can rightclick-hold and slowly move your pointing device.

Here are example #GIS KMZ files for Ventura County, CA.

Anyone can use #GoogleEarthPro (free for PC/Mac/Linux) to fly over georeferenced images in 3D. #FridayFun

I used #GISsurfer screenshot mode and made KMZ files (WA and Ventura County) you can download and use. See p.16-20 of this PDF:

In Google Earth Pro, in addition to the visible controls you can also right-click-and-hold then slowly move the screen cursor.

@jonathangroves I did a talk this year at an international conference about this! GE is a much under-utilised resource. #genealogy #geneadons #GoogleEarthPro

New feature on #GoogleEarthPro today. 🤔

Noticing this morning that Google Earth Pro updated and finally supports high DPI displays in version 7.3.6. Yayy! 👏

@johnboeren_nl I used the map overlay in this post to find the location of an old Corn Mill that is no longer there. It’s such a great way to find places from the past isn’t it? #maps #googleearthpro #genealogy #geneadons

Two of my favourite #genealogy resources are Maps and Google Earth Pro. When you overlay an historical map over Google Earth’s current imagery you can better understand how places have changed. #Maps #Geneadons #LocalHistory #GoogleEarthPro
