Google Earth

Google Earth will be a fundamental part of my assessment 2 project. The reason for me wanting to use this software was a result from an introduction from my lecturer during one of our workshops. I instantly grew great interest in the relation of its 'Mirror World' Google Sketchup and how you can use the both pieces of softwares  to create realistic 3D models efficiently. The fact that they both came across easy to use and that helps as i have limited 3D modeling skills. Google Earth is a realistic Earth simulation engine which has quite high resolution images in some areas of the world, as a result from satellite technology. These top view maps are placed in a virtual earth which you can effortlessly navigate around in. It is very similar to the "Street Map"  website were you can obtain top view images and map diagrams of any UK place.
