In google earth ,how did u get such zzomed in view to show the buildings.I don't get see buildings when I see my city(Chennai) but I can see names of places in Chennai.
I selected the building in the checkbox too.

As I said earlier, not all areas are mapped in detail. I guess it costs a lot of money to task a satelite to take these pictures. You can see here an example of where the detailed maps are going to be. (The darker stripes)

I should have made it clearer.... to the who still havn't noticed zoom in fully!

 

[bharat]

one more doubt.
What is the difference between Google Earth,Google Earth Plus & Google Earth Pro.
I don't see anything written clearly on that site or have I missed out to read somthing.

Thanks kevmead,
ur right about the regions which have detailed view.
All I can see in Chennai(Madras) just vegetation & sand.
But I think the one pointed with the arroe is the Madras chepauk Cricket stadium as it is on the sea shore.

no probs mate.

I have been trying to find cricket stadiums (as well as other things) but its quite hard to find things even in cities that I know let alone places I have never been to. Maybe people could post pics of cricket grounds they find, that would be kinda cool:cool:

Here is my place of worship (St Lawrence Ground, Home of Kent CCC)

[Kev]

don't recognise that, could just be a park London has loads of green spaces. Here is the oval
