Google Earth is a surprisingly useful tool. I routinely find myself using it for business-related purposes, such as creating an illustration of all of the antennas on top of a tall building which we own or use:
I've photographed each one of these in person, and attached those photos to the lease-amendment document, but it's hard to have a sense of perspective on their placement without an "I am just floating around in free space without limitation" view.
It makes me take a moment of pause, to appreciate the fact that Google has sufficient resources to employ actual humans to manually plot out the geometry of every major building in every major city in the world, and manually apply texture maps to them. So far as I am aware, that process has not yet been successfully automated.
