Earth lets you do smooth sailing flybyes of the entire Earth. You can
easily fly to any spot on the globe, by entering any associated data,
like street addresses, place names or lat/long coordinates. There are
overlays that put additional information on the map, like roads,
international boundaries, terrain, 3D buildings, crime statistics,
schools, stadiums, any number of interesting stuff. You can do Local
searches in the program, with icons on the map and a display on the side
showing your results.
