Geo-modeling for Google Earth

Geo-modeling with Google Building Maker

The process of geo-modeling with Building Maker involves matching basic "building blocks" with images of buildings to create 3D models. The aerial imagery used by Building Maker is provided by Google; you don't need to have any of your own photographs to use it. Building Maker is a free application that runs in your web browser, and imagery is available for dozens of cities around the world.


Note: If Building Maker imagery is not available for the buildings you want to model, you can use SketchUp to build geo-models instead.
