Young man (I say that kindly as I'm 71), after losing my FAA Medical in 2019 (and it's taking forever for me to get it back), I began a new career in the second half of 2021 (Private Investigations and using a Drone for crime scene footage - blending in with 5G hits on mobile phones). Your tutorial will greatly enhance my work so "thank you" - your presentation was awesome, easy to follow, and easy to comprehend!!

I'm not a teacher but I do a lot of creative digital work and your tutorials are marvellous, well-paced, well explained, and they cover all the things i need to know. I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers.

I enjoy using Google Earth for planning backpacking trips in Colorado. So fun to explore before I go. Thanks Jamie! You taught me some new things about GE.

Thank you, sir. A short and crisp intro to the tool. Appreciate your work and now feeling ready to explore the options of having a full grown Google Earth toolkit at my hands. Very nice video. Well done.

Easy to follow each a every step, absolutely fantastic explanation. Worth watching this long 27 min video. The vidoe has much to give with in this short time.

Loved the video Jamie! "Abouuut", "Houuuse"...so very Canadian and so loveable!! I'll be watch more of your Google Earth Pro tutorials because I have had problems with exporting animations. The first few times I used it, it worked great, but then I fiddled around with some preferences (can't remember which), the the resulting MP4 was always super distored fish-eye view. I'll keep watching and hope to fine out why this happens. I just today reset Google Earth Pro to its default setting which I'm pretty sure will help.

Canadian living in Los Angeles!

Another great tutorial! You're a great teacher! Have you considered a quickbooks tutorial? I would love to have such a clear teacher walk me through it as you have with excel! Just a thought, thanks again!

[richardjones]

Thanks that was very helpful and clear

[mandyjacotin]

Very good video - thanks. Even so, I did encounter some issues: 1. when I typed in Grocery Store in the search bar and clicked on Search, while I was on Perth (07:00), it took me to the grocery stores in my hometown and not the ones on Perth. Any one else?

Hi Jamie, thanks for your very helpfull and well explained tutorial. One doubt that I have and despite routes creation is not covered on this video, maybe you know and it has been covered on a different video: we can use Google Earth to create routes which can then be sent to GPS devices. We can create PINs or Placemarkers in our route and what I would like to know is how to integrate those in the route so that they would be sent with the route to the GPS. Thank you. Pedro

Excellent tutorial! I have used Google Earth web version and tried Pro in the past but did not fully understand how to use it like this. If you do a follow-up on using Pro, please include some help with how to use KML files; import, export, locations, etc... Have had some difficulty with using the files.
