Google Earth, U.S. Holocaust Museum & Darfur

April 12th, 2007 by Katie Green

I think this is amazing.  The capabilities of Google Earth continue to stack up, creating what I believe will change the way that history is kept moving forward.  This is Part 1 of 6 videos of a speech given to introduce Google Earth’s work with the United States Holocaust Museum to do similar mash-ups of Germany and Dafur representing history and loss of life in each region (Germany- past, Darfur- current).  I can only assume that Iraq will be an in-depth project like these pretty soon.
