Google Earth is an application that gives users the opportunity to access a database on earth imagery obtained from satellites. If you're honest, Google not actually make your own Google Earth but only buy the basic framework with the acquisition of Keyhole, a digital companies and satellite image mapping product that has the same name. But then Google's Keyhole developed so brilliantly transformed into Google Earth at this time.
Google Earth is available with 3 types of options, namely the free version (free) version of the Plus and Pro versions. Plus and Pro version provides printing images with higher definition, interaction with a GPS receiver (Global Positioning System), as well as several other advantages compared to the version of the free version.
Unlike other online maps are available on the Internet, Google Earth presents a view Globe (globe) the earth is naturally just like what is seen astronauts outside Earth's atmosphere. Navigation can be done by selecting the navigation buttons, move the computer mouse on the screen, or with the mouse wheel movement.
With the free version too, explores the world with Google Earth is very exciting and informative. Google Earth provides several popular places in the world that can be viewed by simply pressing the mouse button only. With a double click we can immediately see aerial photographs of Sydney in Australia's Olympic stadium with the details. Google's corporate headquarters in California, became the example of Google Earth with sophisticated detail showing a row of tents and chairs where lunch and Google employee sitting in the backyard of the office.
Some locations even available in a 3-dimensional drawing. Object that exists at that location we can drive around in accordance with the direction of view we want. Eiffel Tower in Paris and Nelson's Collumn Travalgar Square in London for example, can we enjoy a view by pulling in 3 dimensions.
At some locations, Google Earth is able to present images with amazing accuracy. Mountains, buildings, even to vehicles that were on the highway can be seen on Google Earth. Unfortunately Google Earth can only be enjoyed by Internet users with broadband capacity (Google's recommendation is 768 kbps download speed and up), considering the amount of data that must be transferred in order to produce a detailed image. Accuracy drawings for Indonesia is also not so detailed as images are available for the city of Singapore for example.
We can also try to see areas of Indonesia in Google Earth. We can explore the Indonesian vessel cruises to all corners without having to set foot in the slightest.
From a height of 2950 miles (4764 km) range of the Indonesian archipelago look good. Islands large and small tanks that decorate the sea blue mosaic equator. Recesses and troughs seabed there were stretches in between our islands.
If we want a closer look at Indonesian earth from heaven, lived move the scroller on the mouse buttons that activate the movement of zooming in and zooming out on the screen of Google Earth.
Major cities and towns in Indonesia, more or less we browse through the pictures of Google Earth. Surabaya, Sintang, Surakarta, Soroako, Samarinda, until we can explore with Sorong instantly Furthermore, we can admire the elegance and arrogance of volcanoes in Indonesia. Starting from Mount Kerinci in Jambi, Mount Merapi in Central Java, Semeru, Bromo in East Java, Mount Agung in Bali, Mount Rinjani on Lombok island, until the Mount Tambora in Flores.
The islands are often told in elementary school when our teachers in the classroom can diintip quickly. Samosir Island in the middle of Lake Toba is almost united with the mainland in the surroundings, the island in the Aru Islands Maekor, Matak island in the South China Sea, to Gag Island near the town of Sorong, Papua.
Lakes that may never be able to visit us throughout Indonesia can also be enjoyed directly on the computer screen beauty. Have you see the beauty of Lake Laut Tawar in Aceh? Or Dibaruh lake, lake Gutters, and Above the lake in West Sumatra? Jempang you never saw the lake, the lake and lake Across Semajang Kaltim? Sobe Manswon lake and lake in the area of Papua bird's head? Everything we can see via Google Earth.
Some places are 'famous' in Indonesia because of the controversial cases we observed from the air. Buyat village, Ratatotok, and the ever bustling Buyat bay polluted discussed can 'diintip' from Google Earth. Dili, Baucau and Viqueque in East Timor have ever tasted in our power binoculars Indonesia could also its existence.
Sharpness of image detail on Google Earth vary in each region. For the city of Jakarta can now have very good detail picture looks pretty clear that large buildings, common facilities, as well as residential areas. In other places are generally only seen a general description of a location, but details not yet clear.
Green forests and plantations, bare brown fields, gray and big cities in Indonesia, we can see clearly. The images that are visible from the air can be applied for various purposes. Among them for urban planning, land use, forest observation, archeology, geology, until the country's defense.
It is conceivable that if Google Earth is a free service this alone can produce images so detailed and gorgeous, how the image produced by American spy satellites or Israel? Maybe sight of land behind the house we could clothesline recorded images on the screen of their computer monitors.
However, we can think about that later. Let us now first outing with Google Earth!
