Google Earth is a web and computer program that renders a 3D representation of Earth based primarily on satellite imagery.The program maps the Earth by superimposing satellite images, aerial photography, and GIS data onto a 3D globe, allowing users to see cities and landscapes from various angles.
Despite the name "high-resolution image" the analysis of satellite images is hampered by the quality of the images available, leaving more or less room for interpretation [1] as well as by the frequency of image capture. [5] Analysis is dependent on the analysts' cultural, technical knowledge and experience of the specific country context.
Spymesat, [16] by Orbit Logic, [17] a mobile app for iOS and Android, computes pass predictions for any selected location for available commercial and unclassified government high-resolution imaging satellites and provides real-time notifications and dynamic real-time imaging resolution and satellite position information and maps during ...
