Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we finalise the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

I work with construction of power lines and I´m using Google Earth to represent the progress of my projects, automatically, with a generator of KML files. Does any member have similar experience with this technique?

Ettore,

 

My firm looked at using Google Earth images in reports, but there are copyright issues.

 

-Google's policy on business use of Goolge Earth seems to be rather confused. My firm deicded to ban it's use in reports just to be sure we wouldn't be sued.

 

I suggest you clear your use of it with your company's legal team.

 

Cheers,

 

G

Hi Ettore

Welcome to Planning Planet

How regularly are the Google Earth images updated?

Best regards
