1. When were these pictures taken? How often are they updated?
Our images are photographs taken by satellites and aircraft sometime in the last three years. The images in Google Earth are updated on a rolling basis.
2. Are Google Earth images captured in real time?
No, they aren't. Our images are photographs taken by satellites and aircraft sometime in the last three years.
If they were in real time.. well that would be quite amazing. Just imagine that with Hi-Def videos and extremely good zooming. The ability to spy on anyone in real time. That would be wear an awesome service turns into a law suit.
I use it quite frequently . I used to travel within my country and most of the time before i visit a place , i will find out some information from google earth .
But one thing is sad not all places show in google earth for my country .
I've atualy downloaded the Pro verion of Google earth, and atualy it isn't all that great, a bounch of flat images, maybe when the 3D one comes out it'll be more of a suess.
I use it very often and it is the beauty from the table of Google. It has made so easy to see any place in the world so easily with just one click of the mouse.
