New Drawing Features Come to Free Google Earth

5th November 2006

A new beta of Google Earth has been released with some nifty new drawing tools that were previously not available in the free version. Now you can draw directly on the maps and even build up 3D visuals with the polygon tool.

I also found a page with a visual representation of high-resolution imagery by location. If you prefer hard textual data, though, you can check out the PDF.

I’ve been using the beta for a good while and find it to be just as stable as the released product. Go download it if you haven’t yet.
