It maps a version of the -Earth by the superimposition of images obtained from satellite -imagery, aerial photography and GIS over a 3D globe. You point -and zoom to any place 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. - -The degree of resolution available is based somewhat on the points -of interest, but most land (except for some islands) is covered in at -least 15 meters of resolution. - -When running GoogleEarth for the first time, you will see an error -message stating that it is unable to find the Bitstream Vera fonts. -This should be safe to ignore - it will use other fonts (and the -DejaVu fonts included with Slackware are based on the Bitstream fonts). - -NOTEs: -1) Google updates the GoogleEarth bin-file without changing the download - link location and they don't use version numbering in the filename - (the version is more an internal numbering). - - Therefore, this script is subject to failing (and a different MD5SUM) - at any time due to the fact that you might get a newer version - of GoogleEarth than what the script is designed to use. Please notify - the maintainer if this is the case. - -2) Google Earth 6 is "LSB compliant" meaning it was built on a LSB system. - Slackware however does not have that symlink which is part of the LSB 3.0 - specification. You'll need to create the symlink manually after installing - the package: - - ln -sf /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /lib/ld-lsb.so.3 - -3) GoogleEarth is a 32bit application only. You need to have the 32bit - compatibility packages installed to have this work on a 64bit system. - Otherwise you'll just see "no such file or directory" errors. - -4) GoogleEarth now requires that you have OpenGL drivers installed on your - system (and Xorg configured to use them). Not doing so will cause X - to crash. - |
