Detect where and when change happened, anywhere on Earth. Historical imagery already lets you travel through time and gives essential context for projects. But, finding change across time and space can feel like a needle in a haystack. With Google Earth's new tool, detecting change is as easy as...

Analyze sites with new tools in Google Earth. Every project starts with the same question: is this the right site? Now you can answer it in Google Earth, before resources are committed or field work begins. • Detect change: See exactly where and when a site changed over time with a saveable heatmap. • Terrain analysis tools: Evaluate elevation contours, slope, aspect, and cut and fill from your desk or the field, with point and click tools. 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:

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.

Step into the map with the Street View grounding feature in Project Genie from Google DeepMind and Google Labs. Announced at I/O, this research prototype uses locations from Google Maps Street View as a foundation, letting you generate and explore interactive, 360-degree virtual environments from just a text prompt or real-world starting place. Cool, right? But… How does it actually work? 🤔 As an experimental tool, Project Genie tackles the "blank space" problem (showing both what’s in front of the camera and behind it) by utilizing Street View data to realistically generate a 360-degree view of the location you selected as the starting point for your world to generate from. Worlds generated by Genie are far more dynamic and rich because they’re created frame-by-frame based on the world description and user actions. By predicting each subsequent frame, Genie is able to simulate what it looks like to swim across an ocean, or hike to the top of a peak, marking a massive shift in interactive media and simulation pipelines. What real-world place would you want to step into and explore?

How will your country's demographics change this century? At Our World in Data we built a tool to let you see for yourself. The UN's assumptions are the starting point. But then you can adjust the three drivers of change — births, deaths, and migration — to what you expect.

Acquiring foundational site details usually means traveling to sites, finding utility access points, and tracking down disparate data sources. Google Earth is changing the way professionals work. New AI-powered data layers in Google Earth pull from billions of Google Street View images to map infrastructure assets like fire hydrants, storm drains, and more. Plus, when combined with new building footprints and land parcels you have powerful, time-saving data a click away. Inspecting utility access and site constraints from anywhere is now even easier with Google Earth. These layers are now available for Professional & Professional Advanced customers on web and Android, with coverage expanding over the coming weeks.

Project Genie is a Google Labs experiment that lets you simulate dynamic worlds you can navigate in real time with Genie, our general-purpose world model. Today, we’re connecting Project Genie to nearly 20 years of Street View data from Google Maps — so you can now build interactive spaces based on real-world locations. Street View imagery in Project Genie is available now for places in the U.S., and will expand to more locales over time. #GoogleIO

First look at Starfield Free Lanes - Cruise mode that allows you to travel in the space between planets now for the first time without having to go through a loading screen. Previously, you would be in front of a planet but not be able to travel much further to explore other planets in space. Now you can free roam space and travel to whatever planet you want to. Its worth noting that you cannot land on a planet seamlessly as you still have to open your map and select where to land.

Google Street View started as a project to scan the real world. Cars with cameras photographed streets to collect data. It worked, but everything that made a place feel like a place was gone. Until Andy Szybalski prototyped what it could feel like as a product designed for people. The prototype was completely fake. The map didn't work and the imagery wasn't real. But it let people feel what it was like to stand on the street. An engineer saw it and said "let's ship it." Andy had to explain there was nothing to ship. This "smoke and mirrors" prototype convinced the team to throw out years of work and rebuild Street View through the eye of a human instead of a machine. I talked with Andy about the whole story, including the prototypes, the key design decisions, and how Street View became one of the most beloved products on the internet. Full story (with more early prototypes) in the replies 👇

Factory CEO Matan Grinberg says all companies go through three phases of AI adoption: "Phase Zero is reluctance to adopt because developers have had the same workflows for the last 20 years and they might not want to change it." "Phase One is throw the kitchen sink and use as much AI as possible. Whatever you do, just change your workflows." "Phase Two is that people are now adopting the tech, they're proving that they can change their behavior, and use these tools. But now we need to make sure we're actually doing it efficiently and effectively. Uber and Meta are examples of this." "Yes, you'll overspend in Phase One, but the point is to get to Phase Two where then you're actually really efficient on a per-token basis, moving the needle for the business and delivering software faster."

I am excited to announce the launch of the Postman Context Graph API! The Context Graph API lets an agent see your API ecosystem as a connected system. You do not need to replace your model, agent, or IDE. You give the tools you already use access to the graph, and they can reason across services, APIs, deployments, runtime calls, and external systems that were previously invisible to them.

Your team deserves more from your agent observability platform - a single, connected place for instrumentation, investigation, and measurement, enhanced with intelligence. In Braintrust, you can start with an open-ended prompt about agent behavior and carry the investigation into code, evals, automation, and monitoring. New tools like Patterns and Debugger make it easier to find recurring behavior, get to root causes, and act on what you learn. The context you build in one step automatically follows to the next. Work in the platform with an enhanced Loop experience, or move to your coding agent of choice. Read more →
