Assess terrain from your desk with four new tools in Google Earth. Terrain decides where sunlight hits, how irrigation lines run, how steep an access road gets, and how much dirt has to move before anything gets planted or built. Using these tools is as easy as point-and-click: 🗺️ Elevation contours: See how the ground rises and falls with on-demand contour lines down to 1-meter intervals. 📐 Slope: Check how steep the land is at 1-meter resolution to plan access roads and building pads. ☀️ Aspect: See which way the slope faces to check sunlight exposure across your site. ⚖️ Cut and fill: Calculate how much dirt has to move so excavation matches fill and keeps hauling costs down. These tools are available on all Google Earth plans. Standard allows you to generate one layer with a tool each month. Professional plans include expanded access and capabilities when you need more tools, a larger site, or both. Learn more:

Terrain impacts nearly every project. Luckily, Google Earth’s measure tool just got a major upgrade. Introducing elevation profiles. Simply draw a line, as you always have, to instantly generate a detailed and interactive elevation profile in the inspector panel. Whether you are tackling complex route and transportation planning, conducting viewshed analysis, or mapping out logistics for heavy machinery, you can now instantly contextualize terrain dips and peaks directly on the map.

Conducting road safety audits, scheduling maintenance, or planning logistics routes used to require combing through imagery or, worse, driving miles of roads yourself. Not anymore. New AI-powered data layers in Google Earth are changing that. Pulling from billions of Google Street View images, these layers now spot infrastructure assets like stop signs, speed limit signs, and more to map infrastructure for you. By combining these assets into a single project and diving into Street View you can locate and validate assets on Google Earth in seconds. These layers are now available for Professional & Professional Advanced customers on web and Android, with coverage expanding over the coming weeks.

One ridge or tall roofline between two points can block a wireless link or leave a blind spot on a site: In Poland, cybersecurity professional Jacek Hojan uses 3D imagery, elevation profiles, and measurement tools in Google Earth to check structure heights and terrain clearance before scheduling a field visit: "Google Earth allows me to assess object heights and analyze lines of sight remotely, saving the time and expense of a physical site visit. Whether I'm assessing wireless signal ranges or identifying key areas of interest for safety or cybersecurity risks, I get the critical spatial context I need to make decisions right from my desk." - Jacek Hojan, Cybersecurity Professional

Nobody knows your sites, land, and communities better than you do. Now you can turn that local knowledge into custom map layers with the new classify tool in Google Earth on the web, in Experimental. ✏️ Draw your area: Outline a site, or select a polygon already in your map project. Pick a year, 2017 to 2025. 🗂️ Name your own classes: Define the categories your work depends on, from plant species and dry brush to cleared firebreaks. 📍 Label and iterate: Place sample points across your site. Google Earth reads every 10-meter square, fills in the rest, and sharpens as you add points. No code required. 📤 Share and export: Your custom layer lives in your map project, and you can download your work as a GeoJSON file for further analysis. Google's leading geospatial models are now within reach for professionals who want to save time, or who never trained in geospatial coding.

.Google DeepMind is powering a new agricultural landscape understanding layer in Google Earth for portions of the Asia-Pacific region to bring powerful data to our iconic imagery. Leveraging machine learning and satellite imagery, this data layer is able to visualize the ""atomic units"" of agriculture: individual field boundaries. This model doesn't just delineate fields; it determines acreage and identifies critical landscape elements like water bodies and vegetation. Use these granular insights to: ✅ Calculate specific acreage. ✅ Identify water resources for drought contingency planning. ✅ Deliver insights at the farm level, not just the regional level. Go from regional aggregates to atomic units. Get the insights that inspire action. #GoogleEarth #GoogleDeepMind #AI
