3D Layer of American Architecture – Google Earth

The American Institute of Architects, in celebration of its 150th anniversary, worked with Google to create 3D models of the top 150 most popular architectural sites in America. Google has added it as a special layer under the “Featured Content” layer in Google Earth 4.

    Any version of GE 4 should be able to view the AIA models. I used GE Pro 4 to make the movie, but it makes no difference to 3D model performance. You should use the latest version of GE for best performance – GE 4.1 beta is currently the latest. Also, a better graphics card improves performance.
