Earth Maps

Earth Maps explores satellite/globe imagery with historical street scenes and area/distance tools.

Our take

Consider for virtual location exploration

Compass and measurement views add context to map browsing.

Keep in mind: Latest/high-definition/any-place claims are unverified; imagery may be old and measurement/compass readings are not survey-grade or navigation assurance.

  • Measure approximate areas/distances

Good for

  • Users casually exploring geographic imagery

Consider alternatives for

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 14.1.
  • Latest/high-definition/any-place claims are unverified; imagery may be old and measurement/compass readings are not survey-grade or navigation assurance.

Privacy & permissions

Map requests/location can reveal interests and journeys; inspect provider/location permissions.
