Now that is finally out of beta, here’s a question: is it worth coughing up an extra twenty dollars every year for Google Earth Plus? Before, the drawing tools almost made the answer yes by themselves, but now they’re in the free version of GE as well. So what does your twenty bucks get you? And more importantly, can you get the same capabilities for less, or even for free? According to Google, this is what Google Earth Plus offers over the free version: • Enhanced Performance – Not specified, but presumably means you get priority in downloading data, so it might go faster.

Possibly worth paying for, but the free version works fast enough for me. • Printing – A 40% improvement in printing quality (1000 pixels versus 1400 pixels) – This might be worth it. There are ways you can actually do the same thing for free, but they’re time consuming and may be a violation of the Google Earth Terms Of Service. • GPS Data Import (read only) – Hook up your GPS and download waypoint, track and route data directly into GE. Now that GE recently added support for NMEA, in addition to the standard Garmin and Magellan protocols it already supported, this is a lot more useful than it used to be. But there are other options for bringing GPS data into Google Earth that are free, and offer more flexibility. Not worth it.

• Real-Time GPS Tracking – Puts an icon in Google Earth to mark your current position as measured by a connected GPS. A new addition, and reasonably cool, but there are better solutions for this that, if you’re lucky and have the right hardware, are free or cheap. • Spreadsheet Data Import – Allows you to import a.csv file with coordinates into Google Earth, and will do address coordinate lookup (geocoding) as well. But there’s a limit of 100 points in the Plus version, while free tools are available to both convert.csv files with coordinates into the.kml format, and to geocode address files and convert them into.kml files as well. Product • Advertisements – Mandatory in GE, optional in the Plus version. I could care less (or, I couldn’t care less). So of the 6 additional capabilities you get with the Plus version of GE, there are free (or cheap) ways to get better results for three of them: GPS data import, real-time tracking, and spreadsheet import.

And for GPS data, there are free tools that will allow you to export GE points and paths to your GPS as waypoints and tracks, something GE Plus can’t do. Even if you cough up $20 for the other three (enhanced performance, better printing, and no ads), it’s worth using free tools as a replacement or augmentation for what you get with GE Plus. And it’s those tools I’ll be covering in the first series of posts. Addendum: This website is unaffiliated with Google.

Share on Facebook Tweet this Share GoogleGoogle Earth Pro used to cost a staggering $400 a year, but in case you haven’t heard, the intuitive mapping program is now free. Back in 2015, but the company’s instructions have since become outdated. Thankfully, the process remains relatively straightforward and quick. The Pro package will be familiar to anyone who has used Google Earth before, but the software comes loaded with a host of extra features. Media companies use the video export feature to supplement reporting, and construction firms can use the tools to digitally survey any location on Earth. Here’s how to get these and other previously expensive features for free, whether you’re an Apple or Windows aficionado.

Step 1 — Download Google Earth Pro To get started, we’ll need to download and install Google Earth Pro. Head to the, click the Explore option beneath Google Earth Pro, and click the blue Download Google Earth Pro button on the right-hand side of the page. In Windows, simply open the.EXE file installer and allow it install the latest version of Google Earth. On a Mac, you’ll need to open a DMG file, then run a PKG installer. You can customize where the application will install, but the defaults are fine if you’re not sure which settings to use. Step 2 — Sign in with your email and this password The first time you start up Google Earth Pro, you’ll be asked for an email and License Key.
