Shapefiles have officially landed on Earth. goo.gle/422v5sv By simply uploading a .zip file, you can render features and attributes as flexible, cloud-native data layers. This is the ultimate silo-breaker for professionals who need to combine local zoning data, property boundaries, and more to get a complete geospatial picture. Add your first Shapefile to Google Earth now.
