*’google earth’ is a ‘computer program’ that renders a ‘3D representation’ of ‘earth’ based on ‘satellite imagery’*
.
(the program maps the ‘earth’ by superimposing satellite images, aerial photography, and GIS data onto a 3D globe, allowing users to see cities and landscapes from various angles)
(‘users’ can explore the globe by entering ‘addresses’ + ‘coordinates’, or by using a ‘keyboard’ or ‘mouse’)
(the program can also be downloaded on a ‘smartphone’ or ‘tablet’, using a ‘touch screen’ or ‘stylus’ to navigate)
(‘users’ may use the program to add their own data using ‘keyhole markup language’ and upload them through various sources, such as ‘forums’ or ‘blogs’)
(‘google earth’ is able to show various kinds of images overlaid on the surface of the earth and is also a ‘web map service client’)
(in addition to ‘earth navigation’, ‘google earth’ provides a series of other tools through the ‘desktop application’)
(additional globes for the Moonand Mars are available, as well as a tool for viewing the ‘night sky’)
(a flight simulator game is also included)
(other features allow users to view photos from various places uploaded to Panoramio, information provided by Wikipedia on some locations, and Street View imagery)
(the web-based version of Google Earth also includes Voyager, a feature that periodically adds in-program tours, often presented by scientists + documentarians)
(‘google earth’ has been viewed by some as a threat to ‘privacy’ + ‘national security’, leading to the program being banned in multiple countries)
.
(some countries have requested that certain areas be obscured in google’s satellite images, usually areas containing ‘military facilities’)
