Learn how to:

• create custom maps in Google Earth
• create links in Google Earth (to websites, pictures, etc.)
• convert GIS files to Google Earth files, and vice versa
• develop sharable & collaborative online maps in Google Maps

With Google Earth, you can show points, lines and areas with colors and icons of your choice, along with links to webpages, pictures or email addresses. Google Maps provides the ability to create your own custom map online and to share it with friends, have colleagues contribute to the map, or embed your custom map in your own website.
