    Google Earth haha. Good thing I wiped that nasty ass shit off my PCs a year ago when I saw “Gulf of America.”

    I’m glad they’re finally throwing all their legacy software down the AI garbage disposal.

      They’re actually killing the PC version next year, which is actually a problem.

      It’s the goto solution for sharing GIS layers for free using a simple platform. Anybody can download Google Earth Pro for free, and we can export KML/KMZ files from ESRI or QGIS that will be viewable over fairly recent satellite imagery without having to pay thousands for software and/or imagery licensing.

        With plugins QGIS can do this on its own though. Just use quickmapservices or manually import the Google imagery (still available online)
