[quote=IBAUSSIE,279500]I use google earth for many things. Looking for places to visit,interesting places,mountains,monuments,cities. Where i have lived or places i have been to around the world. I know that most if not all of the images viewed are out of date to some degree,months or even years. I have looked at areas that show no houses or buildings but know for a fact that there are shopping malls and carparks there in reality. Also looked at places in winter but google images show no snow and vice versa. If you take what you see as face value and realise the possibility that the image may be out of date,it is a great resource.The maps and street overlays are quite detailed and of course many structures,buildings,geographical sites have been around a lot longer than google so their images wont have changed much since being photographed by google.When traveling around Europe i downloaded street maps and city images to use for directions in that particular region.Very handy.You can upload you own pics of areas visited to the site and view other peoples. Great for checking what is there if you intend to visit. peter I use google earth pro version. peter[/quote]
