Rendering fantastically detailed images of the planet in three dimensions, Google Earth<\/strong> is an app like few others. You might not have noticed just how much Google has improved the program<\/strong> since it first launched the service in 2001 using images collected from aircraft and satellites.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s look at some of the more clever features of Google Earth that you might not have noticed.<\/p>\n

Zoom underwater and study the ocean\u2019s floors<\/h3>\n

You might already know that Google Earth lets you zoom around the planet’s surface with ease. But did you know that you can also plumb the depths under the surface of the world’s waterways<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Seas and major lakes are mapped beneath the surface so users can engage in bathymetry<\/strong> \u2013 the study of the ocean’s floors. In 2011, high-resolution images were added to the system for places like the Hudson River<\/strong>, which allows resolutions up to 100 meters. Simply zoom in on the water\u2019s surface and keep going<\/strong> to discover what lies beneath in three dimensions.<\/p>\n
