Google Earth, NASA World Wind and Norkart Virtual Globe save a cache of downloaded imagery to the user's hard disk, enabling them to be used offline to view previously viewed areas. However, you cannot activate Google Earth without logging into its server for the first time.
Banner The Google Earth Outreach program supports everyone from passionate individuals to public benefit organizations who use Google Earth and KML to make the world a better place. Find out more and get started on the Google Earth Outreach website.
Google aims for world domination. The plans have not been made public but it is believed that they plan to be the only company left on Earth by the year 2017, celebrating the triumph of Soviet Russia a hundred years ago. However, recent developments have forced this date to be shifted to 1999, at which point they will have indexed all information in the multiverse.
The Google Earth's cache size is limited to 2000 MB whereas World Wind has no limit on cache size. In Norkat Virtual Globe the disk cache can be set by the user.
