Before Google
Earth
Maps came on paper
…were hard to read
… lacked features
… map levels
… had to came
be
on separateby
combined sheets
hand
… and mounted on
foam board
Originally, data came
on paper, too
After a few years, we
got electronic data
… and could paste
graphs on a map
by hand
Combining features
was by hand, too
Graphs were two
dimensional
… even time series
 If you wanted
elevation, you had to
give up X or Y
Placemarks were an
X-Y map overlay
No dynamic zooming …
… meant big displays
to show details
Info Balloons
were static
… as were overlays
… as were overlays
3D maps
were
possible
 … if the
ceiling was
high enough
 AGE
… we can combine
images and data …
After Google Earth
… and get 4-D imaging
