Click image to enlarge. Google Earth has enormous potential for
both teaching and research in the geosciences, but you need to
know more than the basics in order to tap the full potential
effectively. The resources in this collection will help you
learn how to push the limits of Google Earth for displaying
geologic data in 3D, for doing field work and research using
Google Earth, and for teaching effectively using Google Earth.
This resource is an outgrowth of the 2011 GSA Penrose Conference
Google Earth: Visualizing the Possibilities for Geoscience
Education and Research This Resource Collection is in
Development This resource collection is being developed by
