- With Google Earth, you can see aerial views starting with 1993. At the top of the map, look for a round clock with an arrow around it. Click on that and you’ll get a slider with the years available to be seen. Some of the images are not focused real sharp, but you’ll still be able to enjoy them. To download GoogleEarth, click here. This feature is not available on GoogleEarth with iPhone or iPad.
- With Google Maps, you can create your own maps which you can save. Suggestions: mark on a map where your grandparents’ home was located, where they’re buried, where they went to school. This also gives you latitude and longitude which will be a marker for that spot in spite of changes in structures. You must have a free Google account. Google Maps is available without downloading a program. For information, click here.
