Ben Scott announces a presentation on Google Earth by Rob Anderson at the upcoming Seacoast Linux User Group:

  • What : Google Earth
  • Who : Rob Anderson
  • Day : Mon 13 Nov 2006
  • Time : 7:00 PM
  • Where: Room 301, Morse Hall, UNH, Durham, NH

This November's SLUG meeting will be on Google Earth, with Rob Anderson leading the discussion. We're hoping everyone will get involved for a group learning session.

What is Google Earth?

“It's a globe that sits inside your PC. You point and zoom to anyplace on the planet that you want to explore. Satellite images and local facts zoom into view. Tap into Google search to show local points of interest and facts. Zoom to a specific address to check out an apartment or hotel. View driving directions and even fly along your route.”

Google Earth is free for personal use, and is available for Linux,
Mac OS X, and something called “Windows”.
