This is likely to be the first thing viewers of your Project will see. To do this, select “create Project in Google drive”. On the left hand bar click the Project icon (map pin) and then click “create new tour”.įor this demo we’ll create a brand new Project.

Like my last post, we’ll create a tour of stunning Scotland. Stuck for inspiration? Take a look at public Projects created by fellow adventurers in Google Earth Voyager. Pull up the Google Street View imagery of your road. Marvel as Google Earth visualisations render the globe in beautiful 3D. Then spin the globe and take a trip to Antarctica. Sign into Google and head over to Google Earth. WARNING: You might lose a whole day to this part. Here’s a quick start guide that will give you everything you need to get up and running… 1. Think of Google Projects as a more interactive, map focused version of Microsoft Powerpoint. Simply put, Google Earth Projects takes showing off your holiday snaps to the next level allowing you to mark spots you care about, and annotate with text, photos, or videos to complete your stories. I do… from watching old movies (sorry, Dad!). Remember sitting around an over-head projector whilst friends showed you their holiday photos. This week I’ve been playing with Google Earth, creating a variety of Projects. Two weeks ago, I wrote about creating your own virtual tours using Google’s Tour Creator. Create customised maps and stories about places anywhere in the world.
