Google Earth is a free program from Google that allows you to "fly" over a virtual globe and view the Earth through high-resolution graphics and satellite images. It is greatly superior to static maps and satellite images. Google Earth gives you a drone's-eye view of the world below....

To overcome this, one has to buy latest high resolution satellite image which is more expensive to purchase and sometimes it may not be possible to get the data due to security reasons. An alternative solution is to utilize Google earth imagery which is open source and provides clear view of...
missions such as Sentinel-2 or Landsat, which have been designed for a broader range of Earth observation needs, deliver freely accessible archives of optical images that are not as tailored to vegetation structure but offer longer-term global coverage at high spatial and temporal resolution. Sensor...
Googleannouncedyesterday that it has begun rolling out new high-definition satellite imagery of Earth to its Google Earth and Google Maps apps. The company said it was introducing a new cloud-free mosaic of the Earth's surface made up of high-resolution images taken by Landsat 8, a satellite...
We introduce Version 2 of our widely used 1-km Köppen-Geiger climate classification maps for historical and future climate conditions. The historical maps (encompassing 1901–1930, 1931–1960, 1961–1990, and 1991–2020) are based on high-resolution,
The emergence of new high-resolution platforms like Google Earth offers new potential scientific uses that can help meet these challenges. Using data from MODIS and detailed observation of Google Earth images, we have produced a yearly time series of deforestation hotspots for the island of Borneo ...
A high-resolution gravimetric quasigeoid model for Vietnam and its surrounding areas was determined based on new gravity data. A set of 29,121 land gravity measurements was used in combination with fill-in data where no gravity data existed. Global Gravi
We applied an object-based image analysis and nearest neighbour classifier to map and monitor changes in land use/cover using multi-temporal high spatial resolution satellite imagery in an urban wetland area (Hangzhou Xixi Wetland) from 2000, 2005, 2007, 2009 and 2013. The overall eight-class ...
Vehicle Detection in Very High Resolution Satellite Images of City Areas Current traffic research is mostly based on data from fixed-installed sensors like induction loops, bridge sensors, and cameras. Thereby, the traffic flow ... Leitloff,J.,Hinz,... - 《IEEE Transactions on Geoscience & Rem...
