Google Earth Enterprise
Google Earth Enterprise (GEE) is a powerful 3D visualisation solution that combines your organisation's geospatial data with easy-to-use tools for end users. GEE enables you to import terabytes of geospatial data from your data sources, including popular GIS platforms such as ESRI, Oracle and MapInfo. All this data can then be styled and combined into a single globe, or arranged across multiple globes to display only the most relevant data to your users. You can also add a security layer to each globe you publish to keep your data secure.
Your published globes can be viewed by your end-users with the same easy-to-use technology as the publicly available Google Earth experience. The interface is not only familiar and intuitive, but allows globes to be viewed through both a client and a web browser. Using the Google Maps and Google Earth API, you can even embed your geospatial data inside other business applications.
Truly innovative visualisation access
Google Earth Enterprise and Google Maps API Premier use sophisticated streaming technology to distribute rich geospatial-data to your users' mobile device, with amazing speed and with full context. |

Mobile Access via the Android Google Earth Client enables end-users to view your organisation’s 3D globe through a direct connection, including all imagery, terrain, and vector layers, with support for custom vector search. End-users located in environments with limited or no Internet connectivity can export portions of a published 3D globe, including all imagery, terrain, vectors, KMLs, and search - and serve the data locally from their own laptops or other storage devices using a native, cross-platform, light-weight Portable Earth System.
Keep your data secure
Google Earth Enterprise offers two deployment options. Corporations and government agencies can choose to host Google Earth Enterprise on internal servers, or work with their data layered on top of Google's global database of satellite imagery and mapping information. Either way, internal data is secure and protected from unauthorised access.
More features
Rapid time to value
Google Earth Enterprise can be installed quickly and can be up and running within a matter of days. What's more, it's easy to use. Widespread familiarity with Google Earth promotes rapid user adoption with minimal training needed.
Search easily
An optional search plug-in allows users to query your organisation's geospatial data and view relevant results on the globe.
Go beyond Earth
In addition to Earth, Google now allows users to view data about oceans and also "go back in time” with the ability to view historical imagery, comparing it with present day views helps employees quickly understand how a place or region has evolved over time.
GEE software components
Google Earth Enterprise brings the same technology used to power the public Google Earth to your organisation's data centre. Three software components – a client, a server, and a fusion server – bring full Google Earth capabilities into your organisation.
Google Earth Pro
Increase employee productivity, communicate visually, and share geographic information with Google Earth Pro (GE Pro). Give your organisation access to the most intuitive and widely used program for viewing location-specific information, specifically enhanced with additional capabilities designed for business users.
With the same easy-to-use interface as Google Earth, GE Pro offers the most comprehensive geospatial database available, including high resolution imagery, 3D cityscapes, detailed road maps, panoramic imagery at street level, historical imagery, and rich points of interest such as natural features, weather patterns, and business locations.
Extended and improved specifically for business users
Google Earth Pro extends the power of the publicly available Google Earth with additional capabilities designed specifically for business users.
High resolution image capture
Share information with colleagues and clients via high-resolution prints of Google Earth scenes.
Measuring Tools
Take the guesswork out of analysing the ground with Google Earth Pro Measuring Tools that measure area, radius and length.
Import, style and view mapped GIS data
Import spreadsheets of addresses and instantly see mapped points with Batch Geocoding without adding additional, costly GIS software.
Rich styling
Incorporate and style geographic information system (GIS) data easily with GIS Data Importer for richly styled and thematic overlays.
Create custom videos
Create custom and compelling videos easily with the Movie Maker feature for use in marketing collateral and presentations.
Google Maps API Premier

Familiar features
Users benefit from the ease of use and growing number of features that people love about the consumer Google Maps offering, including:
Street View
View panoramic, eye-level views of cityscapes, landmarks and points of interest. 
Get Directions
Find step-by-step directions between two points. 
Google Earth API
Embed Google Earth into your web page and 3D-enable your Google Map solution. 
Geocoding Service
Effortlessly gather geographic coordinates based on an address, or find a structured address based on geographical coordinates. New Feature! Protected Map Layer
The integration between Google Fusion Tables and Google Maps API Premier makes it extremely easy to visualise thousands of locations on a map. Now, organisations that need to map sensitive or private data can use the new Protected Map Layer which allows you to visualise your data in your Maps API Premier implementation (and ONLY your implementation) and your underlying data tables are kept entirely private. No servers to stand up, no database applications to install, it's simple and keeps your data safe - just as it should.
