Explore the Philippine Seas, Find Marijuana with Google Earth
The New Google Earth software comes with some nice upgrades:
Filipinos interested in exploring the country’s mysterious underwater attractions should look no further than their own computers with the launch of Google Ocean, a new feature that enables users of Google Earth to dive beneath the water surface, explore 3D underwater terrain and browse ocean-related content contributed by leaders in ocean science and advocacy.
See the feature video on Google Earth:
Finally, a tool to show us landmark history – spiced up with a Mars view:
3D Mars: This is the latest stop in our virtual tour of the galaxies, made possible by a collaboration with NASA. By selecting “Mars” from the toolbar in Google Earth, you can access a 3D map of the Red Planet featuring the latest high-resolution imagery, 3D terrain, and annotations showing landing sites and lots of other interesting features.
What can you do with this level of info? Well you can find Marijuana Plantations (like the Swiss police):
Swiss authorities, on Friday, announced that they found a large cannabis plantation with the help of the highly popular free satellite mapping software, Google Earth.
I pray our police would be just as resourceful.
