We’ve also introduced search layers, which will show all the relevant search results (not just the top ten), so now, when looking for gelato in Milano, you can see all the tasty possibilities.

Aside from streamlining the visual design of the search panel, we’ve enabled the same Autocomplete feature that’s available on Google Maps. We’ve also made some updates to the search feature in Google Earth. To try this new feature, simply sign in to your Google Account in the upper right hand corner of Google Earth and click “Share.” Images of mountains, oceans, deserts, 3D cities, your favorite pizza shop on Street View-you can now experience all these amazing places around the world with people on Google+. If you’ve already upgraded to Google+, you can share images of the places you’ve virtually traveled to with your Circles, such as family, friends or your local hiking club. With the Google Earth 6.2 update, we’ve added the option to share a screenshot of your current view in Google Earth through Google+.

Google Earth is a great way to virtually explore the globe, whether revisiting old haunts or checking out a future vacation spot. While this change will appear on all versions of Google Earth, the 6.2 release provides the best viewing experience for this new data. This change is being made on both mobile and desktop versions of Google Earth. The end result is a beautiful new Earth-viewing experience that preserves the unique textures of the world’s most defining geographic landscapes-without the quilt effect.

Today, we’re introducing a new way of rendering imagery that smoothes out this quilt of images. Because of this variance, views of the Earth from high altitude can sometimes appear patchy. The Google Earth globe is made from a mosaic of satellite and aerial photographs taken on different dates and under different lighting and weather conditions. Additionally, we’ve introduced a feature that enables you to share an image from within Google Earth, so you can now simply and easily share your virtual adventures with family and friends on Google+. With Google Earth 6.2, we’re bringing you the most beautiful Google Earth yet, with more seamless imagery and a new search interface. We're taking bird's eye view to a whole new level with the latest version of Google Earth, released today.
