APPLICATION

Indian network operator LifeStyle Networks

SkyPilot recently announced its SkyControl with Google Earth mapping service.

used IN satellite image

Google Earth displays satellite images of varying resolution of the Earth's surface, allowing users to visually see things like

houses and cars from a bird's eye view. The degree of resolution available is based

somewhat on the points of interest, but most land (except for some islands) is covered in

at least 15 meters of resolution

GEO EYE

GeoEye-1—the world’s highest resolution commercial earth-imaging satellite.

GeoEye-1 will be equipped with the most sophisticated technology ever used in a commercial satellite system.

By Andrea Shalal-EsaWASHINGTON, Sept 6 (Reuters) - GeoEye Inc

said it successfully launched into space on

Saturday its new GeoEye-1 satellite,

which will provide the U.S. government,

Google Earth users and others the highest-

resolution commercial color satellite imagery on

the market.

GeoEye-1 will be able to capture images at .41 metres (16 inches) resolution in black and white and 1.65 metres (5.5 feet) in color, but under current government rules, the company can only offer the public half-metre (1.64 feet) images.

USE IN EDUCATION

For Educators

Google Earth, Google's satellite imagery-based mapping product puts the whole world on a student's computer. It enables users to "fly" from space to street level to find geographic information and explore places around the world. Like a video game and a search engine rolled into one, Earth is basically a 3D model of the entire planet that lets you grab, spin and zoom down into any place on Earth. Now, with Google Earth 4.3, you can tour distant cities with Google StreetView, view photo-realistic 3D buildings, and even show your students sunset around the world with the new Sunlight feature.

In Pictures: The Strangest Sights in Google EarthEver since Google first let people

scour the planet from the comfort of their computers through the

Google Earth software program, fans have been on a virtual scavenger hunt from the North Pole to the South Pole

looking for anything interesting, unusual, or unexplained. From

shipwrecks to crop circles, from ads big enough to be read from space to a giant pink bunny nearly the size of a football field, we've collected just a

little of the odd and spectacular sights. You can see the same images in Google Maps by clicking the links

we provide--but you'll get a better view by copying the coordinates in

parentheses after each link and pasting them into Google Earth's 'Fly To' box. We've also created a file of

Placemarks that includes all of these sights and more; you can download it and open it with Google Earth. Enjoy

the trip! Artwork: Chip Taylor
