Google+Earth

Google Earth is a program that uses satellites images to give you a complete picture of the planet. This program is not limited to only viewing a big picture of the planet. You are able to zoom to any part of the planet, find cities, and select the option to have several things like roads, borders, dining, lodging, and several other choices.

You can see in the upper right corner of the image there is a circle with arrows inside that looks like a compass and two lines with boxes on the right and top parts of the compass. The compass is used to change the direction of north and move the earth around. The line right of the compass with boxes is used to zoom. The other line is used to change the side your viewing from.

This is a example of zooming using the line with boxes to the right of the compass.



This is a tilted view of the earth using the line with boxes above the compass.

This is an example of when you move around the north arrow on the compass.

This is an example of using the arrows of the compass or the little joystick that's inside the compass to move around the image of the earth.

One of the side bars of Google Earth can be used to show things like borders, lodging, airports, diners, and many other different types of things.

Any city in the world can be entered into another sidebar in Google Earth and used to show you the exact location of the city and what the city looks like from above.

This is what Anchorage looks like from above using Google Earth.

As I said before you can use Google Earth to zoom in on things but what I didn't mention was that cities are where you get the best view for these zoom shots.

This is likely one of the best shots that your going to get while using Google Earth. You can go closer but the pictures become very fuzzy.
