view hypsometry
|
| |
I think it would be interesting and usfeful if one could switch on/off
isohypses and isobates, so as one could get the view of Earth's
surface, elevations, mountains etc. similar to that found in
traditional printed atlases.

Outdated
|
| |
I have read some responses to issues of the images being outdated, but
somehow, someone is not getting it. A three year old image is not
acceptable in an urban area. It makes GoogleEarth unreliable. In
Reno there have been significant changes which don't show in
GoogleEarth including an entire High School campus (Bishop Manogue HS)... more »

Concerned About Accuracy of Timestamps
|
| |
Hi, I've only recently begun to play with Google Earth and I was very
happy to find that, in this version, there is a timestamp feature in
the status bar to let me know the age of the particular imagery that
I'm looking at. Unfortunately, I am very concerned about the accuracy
of these timestamps as I have found an 8 year old image (if not more)... more »

Limitations to aircraft line of sight due to mountain shadowing
|
| |
Has there been any work done in the GE community to model line of
sight over natural obstructions, such as mountains, for aircraft at a
given altitude? Model would be based on digital terrain elevation and
would predict areas that could be viewed as well as those that could
not be viewed by the aircraft.... more »

Our house's not there !
|
| |
Our house, built in 1985/1986 just doesn't exist in Google Earth, all
the more so our many neighbours who've mushroomed in the last 20
years !!!! In any case, the pix is extremely blurry, albeit we're at
the foot of Mont Blanc, in France ! You can hardly get more touristy
and popular a spot !!! Not for Google !... more »

Turkey map resolution
|
| |
Hi,
I need map resolution of Ankara and Konya cities in Turkey. Hi-res or
low-res are meaningless for me. I need technical data. For ex. 0.6 m
Quickbird panchromatic image or 4m IKONOS multispectral image are very
useful for me. I have already searched web but couldn't find anything.
I will appreciate if you share your knowledge with me.... more »

Google Earth Outdated Imagery
|
| |
I am working on a project in Vancouver, South East False Creek near
the Cambie Bridge.
The approximate location is 49deg08'05"N, 123deg06'48"W.
I have been working on this project for almost a year. The site has
been under construction since around early 2007, however, google
earth's image predates the construction. There is no evidence of any... more »

Aging an Image
|
| |
Hello, I tried to find this answer within posted material but couldn't
so I apologize if this is is a duplicate question somewhere.
I need to know the date of the image I'm looking at. I understand
that most images are 1-3 years old but for what I'm doing I need to
know the exact year of what I'm looking at. Is there a way that I can... more »

Juneau Alaska Area Navigation Error
|
| |
For at least the last couple days, GE has VERY large errors in
alignment between roads and image geography. I see this on several
different computers so the problem is in the data, not my computer. To
see the problem, just Fly to 'Juneau, AK, USA" with the road layer
turned on. The roads are about 250 meters displaced to the south-east.... more »
