Today, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of Shapefile and 3D model import support on Google Earth. Plus, we’ve also added elevation profiles to the measure tool just for… good measure! https://t.co/vpIJA3HCv4
You’ve made it clear. You want to be able to bring more of your data and models to Google Earth’s real-world canvas. We're excited to take the next step in delivering on that promise with these new features:
🔶 Shapefiles (SHP): Render industry-standard geospatial data as performant, cloud-native layers.
💡 3D Models (GLB): Place custom architectural mock-ups, massings, and more in a visually rich context.
🗻 Elevation Profiles: View detailed terrain data in the measure tool you already know and love.
These new features are live now on Google Earth!
