Kiev City Map With Google's Earth View
Google has introduced a new 3D view feature in its Google Maps service. Named Earth View, this new viewing mode brings 3D perspective to Google Maps. This feature is pretty different from the Satellite view. This new Earth View feature would be available on the web browser only after installing this Earth Plugin. You can make the best of this Earth View to check out places like Kiev's Independence Square, shown below.
Earth view offers a true three-dimensional perspective, which lets you experience mountains in full detail, 3D buildings, and first-person dives beneath the ocean. New Earth View for Google Maps provides a fly-through interface. However, you might face some trouble viewing buildings from odd angles. Use the scroll wheel of the mouse to zoom in or out. To tilt the view from perpendicular to oblique, press and hold the Control key and drag map.
Earth View uses the same technology that has been used in the Google Earth application. The only thing that is different is that Google Engineers have made Earth View more fluid for the web browser to handle the 3D perspective.
