Tool #1. Google Earth
• Google Earth is a virtual globe, map and geographical information program. It maps the Earth by the superimposition of images obtained from satellite imagery, aerial photography and geographic information system (GIS) 3D globe.
• As of October 2011, Google Earth has been downloaded more than a billion times.
• For some parts of the surface of the Earth, 3D images of terrain and buildings are available
• Available free or US$399/year for Pro
http://www.google.com/earth/
Easy to add points, lines and polygons
At IMW2014, we also discussed uploading a Shapefile or KML file.
Limited but effective pop-ups & styling
How are screen overlays different from image overlays?
#1 Screen overlays are anchored relative to the screen. Image (ground) overlays are anchored relative to the ground.#2 Image (ground) overlays can be added with the toolbar button. Screen overlays are added in the KML code.#3 In the above examples, the legend and logos are screen overlays and the wetland map is a image (ground) overlay.
Screen overlay (e.g. logos) Image overlay (e.g. thematic map layer)
Google Earth Example #1
• Surui Cultural Map• 5yr collaboration• “Trading Bows and
Arrows for Laptops: Carbon and Culture.”
• Surui created points of interest (POIs) that reflect their traditional culture’s close interdependency with their forest home.

IMW2014 Tools Scan Slidedeck assembled by Charles Burnett GeoMemes Research | UVic [email protected]
IMW2014 slidedeck slides were re-used with permission. You can find the original workshop slide decks athttp://imwcanada.earthoutreach.org/training-materials
Note:This scan is not comprehensive. There were many tools demonstrated during the first two days of IMW@2014 that I do
not have images for. And, I could not be at every workshop session.
If I have omitted a tool that should be in this list, please email me at [email protected]. I would be very happy to include more free-ish tools!
