The challenge

For twenty years, Google Earth has provided a new way to see and understand our world. Today, urban planners and city officials are faced with the challenge of analyzing vast amounts of geospatial data to make informed decisions about climate resilience, urban planning, and more. This process can be time-consuming and complex. Google Earth has evolved from an exploration tool to a platform for action, helping professionals find, prepare, and analyze geospatial data to drive real-world impact at scale.

How Google Earth helps cities

Google Earth helps cities and urban planners by providing a comprehensive, interactive model of our world to analyze, build, and collaborate.
The platform's capabilities are designed to streamline workflows:
