Google Earth Pro is free!


Back in January Google announced that Google Earth Pro is now free! Google Earth has always been free, but the Pro version previously cost $400 a year.

Why would you want the Pro version? There is a complete list at the Google Earth Pro product page. Some of the advantages for educators are:
  • measure distances in feet, miles, kilometers, and more
  • measure area and radius
  • record and share Google Earth movies
Read Google's announcement to find links to get a free license key and download the software at http://google-latlong.blogspot.com/2015/01/google-earth-pro-is-now-free.html

How would you use Google Earth? Check out these sites for lesson plans and ideas.
