Google earth - especially the pro version - has SEVERAL more features. For example, here's a test I did a few years back plotting a GPS-enabled cellphone over a Keyhole (which Google bought and renamed "Google Earth") image. http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/kai_gps_home.jpg http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/kai_gps_home_zoom.jpg You can also do 3d modeling and super impose various items into the earth. One thing I remember liking was being able to view the world in 1822. In addition, you can setup 3d views of places or locations. This enables various spatial relations. I find it very cool that they use Qt and make it avail to *nix. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
