Open Sourcing Google Earth Enterprise
- flukus 10y agoI never realized google had killed it.
- jpatokal 10y agoFor clarity, this is the Google Earth Enterprise toolset used to create globes of your own imagery, not Google Earth itself, which remains alive and kicking.
- whitten 10y agoI wonder if the http://www.worldforge.org http://www.worldforge.org folks could incorporate this code into their "I want to create worlds" code. This seems to be a useful enhancement.
- filmor 10y agoCould you drop the `?m=1` from the URL? Mobile works just fine without it but opening it on a larger screen is a bit messed up.
- phit_ 10y agothe browser version of blogger doesn't render without javascript, so I actually prefer the mobile link
- lucian1900 10y agoBut the full desktop website has better UX. Modern browsers have JavaScript support.
- paulddraper 10y agoIndeed, support is quite good. http://caniuse.com/#search=es5 http://caniuse.com/#search=es5
- jlg23 10y agothanks :)
- user5994461 10y agoAnd I prefer a link that's readable. Ergo, the desktop site on a desktop display.
- sp332 10y agoTry changing your user-agent string. It looks fine in the text-based browsers I tried.
- siscia 10y agoA quite interesting business opportunity
- xd1936 10y agoGoogle Earth Enterprise itself may be open source now, but it's kind of useless without all of the proprietary Google APIs that it's so closely tied in with... right?
- jpatokal 10y agoThis also open-sources the GEE protocols, so it's now possible to create your own open-source clients for it.
