这是自9月13日以来较大的一次更新,这次更新的亮点在于图标调色修改,并且在免费版本中添加了线条和多角形绘图功能,还提供了打印搜索结果和地标的功能.部分原来Google Earth Pro才有的模块已经放到了Basic中,推荐大家更新.
New features (as of November 1st, 2006))
Drawing Tools: The path and polygon drawing tools are now available in the free product. You can easily sketch figures on the imagery for richer annotations and can share these overlays as KML or KMZ files. These features can be accessed from the toolbar.
