Also screen updates tend to be done for the whole screen at once rather than in a tiled fashion. It has a new rendering engine with a smoother feel when zooming in and out.There is the default street map view, which shows significant variation over the different zoom levels, and there is the satellite imagery in Earth View.

Plus you can create KML content on the Google Earth versions of Moon and Mars for your own use, or to be shared with others via KML. In Google Moon and Google Mars in the new Google Maps Earth View, there is no search functionality, whereas in the desktop application Google Earth, there is both search functionality and many selectable layers. There are currently no ‘My Moon’ or ‘My Mars’ products.
It has web versions of Google Moon and Google Mars similar to those in Google Earth. Most notably, the 3D view can only be viewed from the four cardinal directions and two specific angles. It has Earth view, including 3D imagery and the ability to tilt and pan the view in a way that is similar to Google Earth, but in a number of ways significantly different. It has Street View, including Historical Street View, which cannot be accessed in Google Earths Street View, nor in the older version of Street View. Your current location may also be shown if you wish. If you have signed in, then your saved places places will be shown, and possibly your home and work locations if Google knows them. Click on any place on the map, and the map changes, highlighting subtly important features relevant to the location you clicked and hiding features that are less relevant. This is again the new Google Maps (also known as the “preview” option). The following post is based entirely on observations made while trying the products and it is important to remember that we have no direct knowledge of the actual technology used behind the scenes.īoth Google Maps and Google My Maps appear to share the same basic mapping data, such as the street map, public transit maps, and points of interest, but beyond that, there are very significant differences between the two. 
So let us have a look at the observable differences between the new Google My Maps and Google Maps, and how it effects Google Earth users. This information pertains to the desktop web versions, not the mobile apps. As mentioned in this recent post, users that have custom maps are being migrated from the Classic My Maps to Google’s new version of My Maps which was formerly Google Maps Engine Lite.
