Welcome to NASA's Eyes, a way for you to learn about your home planet, our solar system, the. I have been trying to get this work for a week, but in vain. Fly along with NASA's Earth science missions in real-time, monitor Earth's vital signs like Carbon Dioxide, Ozone and Sea Level, and see satellite imagery of the latest major weather events, all in an immersive, 3D environment. Google Maps has always pushed the boundaries of what a map can do. Newest Earth Maps (street view), Satellite map, Get Directions, Find Destination, Real Time Traffic Information 24 Hours, View Now. This means that, even if I align HD map with satellite imagery from Google Earth (manually with hand), this alignment wouldn’t work for satellite imagery from Google Maps. New updates coming soon to Google Maps help you get the feel for a neighborhood before you go, explore 250+ landmarks in aerial view, search for nearby places with Live View and more. with maps, driving directions,satellite maps. You can also notice that the satellite imagery used between the two are different. You can see that the point ‘A’ is exactly at the center of the intersection in Google Earth, whereas the point ‘A’ is not at the center of the intersection in Google Earth. Explore street maps and satellite photos with technology provided by Google Maps & Street View. The satellite imagery source for Google Earth and Google Maps are different, meaning that the satellite imagery from these two places themselves, have a misalignment of ~5 meters or greater.įigure 5: Point ‘A’ marked on satellite imagery from Google Earthįigure 6: Same point ‘A’ marked on satellite imagery from Google Maps > Satellite Images GeoColor: GOES East Geocolor is a multispectral product composed of True Color (using a simulated green component) during the daytime, and an Infrared product that uses bands 7 and 13 at night. My eventual goal is to align HD map with satellite imagery from Google Maps. Experience Street View, 3D Mapping, turn-by-turn directions, indoor maps and more across your devices.

However this was not possible, as aligning in certain part of the map, caused misalignments in other parts of the map. I tried to align by hand, the HD map with satellite mode of Google Earth, through scaling and translation. However, when I switched to satellite mode of Google Earth, the alignment was lost.įigure 4: HD map overlay on satellite mode of Google Earth (Red arrows indicate some areas of misalignment) Street View stitches together billions of panoramic images to provide a virtual representation of our surroundings on Google Maps. White and and cool-colored areas indicate high water vapor (moisture) content (green areas indicate the presence of both high moisture content and/or ice crystals). Bringing your map to life, one image at a time.
