Pros The features I like the most are Google Earth Pro is 3D visualization and also it measures the distance between the marked location. Cons When you are making a path from one location to another it shows the overall length of the path and in order to measure the distance between you have to save the path and then measure the distance with a ruler.Overall, it doesn't show the distance between two points if you are making a number of points while making a path.

Pros Que es muy fácil de manejar en todas sus funciones básicas, aunque cuenta con otras mucho mas complejas, pero solo las utilizarían personas que su trabajo dependa de esta herramienta. Cons Realmente no tengo puntos en contra del software, anteriormente lo que no me gustaba era que tenias que instalar en tu computadora el programa para hacer consultas de mapas, pero ahora con la versión en web eso se ha solucionado. Switched from [Google Maps](https://www.capterra.com/p/227511/Google-Maps/) Porque el street view de google maps a veces no es suficiente.

Pros Es un excelente programa para visualización de imágenes satelitales practica, con fines practico de estudio e investigación como para fines turístico de conocimiento general. Permite incorporar una serie de imágenes y modelos producto de otros programas para realizar georreferenciaciones. Cons Es un programa que no permite ingresar archivos en formato grid o shapefile, lo que limita un poco los interpolación de archivos entre programas considerando que son los formatos de archivos mas populares.

This is a great product it has helped analyze the 3d structure of the earth along with various physiological aspects such as rivers, mountains, oceans, islands, deltas, estuaries, bays, gulfs as well as countries. Google Earth has always intrigued me with how my local area looks from above. It even has various features in which you can see a particular timeline of areas. Cons Some areas are blurred which makes it difficult to analyze. IT would be great if all areas could be shown without blurring. A Review Source Alexis F.

Technical Director Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Geolocation tool that is free and effective." September 14, 2023 5.0 An efficient Geolocation presentation tool. Pros I use Google Earth Pro at work to examine construction sites because I work in the engineering sector. Cons Two things first the program runs slowly and jerkily. More so, there is no option for me to remove existing structures and the surrounding area, which can occasionally conflict, when I place the possible development on the site.

Every device I get it's one of the first apps to get. Only that they don't give street views Pros Easy to navigate through, every tool is easy to find. Not stressing, very user friendly. It really gives me exactly what I want. I like the way it's always up to date. Cons Not yet found any problem so far as long as i have used Google earth pro Review Source Grazia C. Project engineer Renewables & Environment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Ottimo software" July 4, 2023 4.0 Pros Sicuramente l'aspetto più importante che contraddistingue il software rispetto agli altri è la qualità delle immagini, anche quando vengono esportate. Un'altra funzionalità veramente utile è la possibilità di importare dati GIS, molto utile per chi, come me, lo utilizza per visualizzare aree utili allo sviluppo di impianti fotovoltaici, ed in generale è utile a chi vuole unire la qualità delle immagini al dettaglio fornito dai dati gis. Cons Il programma è un applicativo per deskstop e richiede una certa potenza di calcolo. Inoltre dipende molto dal computer per la gran parte delle funzionalità utili.

February 18, 2023 5.0 Disfruto de la experiencia de utilizar el buscador para encontrar sitios por todo el mundo.Se puede buscar cualquier lugar del mundo y se encuentra bastante actualizado dependiendo de como de accesible sea el lugar. Pros Me parece muy interesante que se pueda ver cualquier localización por coordenadas GPS o simplemente buscando el sitio con el mouse. Cons Opciones como medir distancias y tamaños no son muy intuitivas en comparación con otros software. Switched from [Google Maps](https://www.capterra.com/p/227511/Google-Maps/) En el ordenador es mucho mejor experiencia Google Earth Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Geographer Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Google Earth Pro a software with a wide range of features!"

Dies ist für die Luftbildarchäologie ein tolles Werkzeug, um Bewuchsmerkmale zu erkennen und zu untersuchen. Cons Es wäre schön auf einer Website alle Möglichkeiten der Darstellung und externen Karten zu haben, ohne immer alles einzeln mühsam suchen zu müssen. Review Source Justin J. Ceo Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "perfect for finding sites" May 30, 2022 5.0 Pros this is perfect for my IT company as our techs have a lot of issues finding places etc with this it gives us a full view of the area 360 degrees our morning meetings are so much easier after we started using this I connect my laptop to the projector we check the sites and the techs love it I love the add a project feature makes our lives easier I create it for each area and the techs know exactly what's to be done at which site.

What I like the most about Google Earth Pro are the different tools; the 3D visualization, the slide with which you can go back in time, you can add photo's/text,... You can also use Google Earth Pro is also to analyze data or create online excursions all over te world. Cons The quality isn't always very good which makes is harder to correctly interpret data.

The 3D flying system to view buildings is very awesome. The chrome version is ready to go with GIS mappings. You can export and import your positions at custom coordinates with ease. Cons The software is very laggy and slow. The desktop version is graphic processing hungry. The UX needs an overhaul. UI is not changed for a while. Importing and exporting sometimes cause issues Review Source FV Federico V. Appassionato di musica Leisure, Travel & Tourism Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "La mia esperienza" September 9, 2023 4.0 Mi sono trovato veramente bene a indicare un posto, paese o semplicemente una strada, si vede molto bene durante la visualizzazione 3d, ho avuto problemi a entrare le prime volte per colpa del mio dispositivo ma per il resto non posso lamentarmi, consiglio a tutti. Pros Google Earth è un programma veramente semplice e intuitivo, ho imparato a d usarlo in meno di 1 ora, ci sono veramente tante funzioni utili, la possibilità di vedere in 3d le strade di città, paesi e luoghi vari lo rende unico, non avevo mai visto niente di simile, non lo uso spesso ma quando lo uso mi torna veramente utile, un altro punto forte è il fatto di poterlo usare in qualsiasi piattaforma, pc, telefono e tablet. Cons Purtroppo è molto lento se si ha un dispositivo di vecchia generazione, quando si usa per tanto tempo il dispositivo dimostrerà ritardi causati dal programma. Le strade vengono aggiornate veramente poco, ma è comprensibile visto la quantità totale di strade. Review Source LS Lewis S.
