Google Earth already offers the ability to switch to Street View while viewing satellite imagery, but now you can look through images captured across different years β just like you can in Google Maps. Last year, Google launched the ability to view historical satellite and aerial imagery, which was previously only available in the Earth Pro desktop app.
Google is also planning to roll out a new feature that gives professional users βAI-driven insightsβ about the planet. That includes information about tree canopy coverage, allowing users to see where an area is more heavily shaded and which places might benefit from cooling approaches. It will also offer access to land surface temperatures, which professionals can use to see which areas of a city are hotter. These insights are rolling out in the βcoming weeks.β
