Download Google Earth 7.0.3 build 8542

Google has released version 7.0.3 of Google Earth. Among other things, this program allows you to zoom in and view a large number of points of interest from space, including cities, but also objects below sea level and even on Mars. It is also possible to plot a route and print it. New in version 7.0 is the ability to view cities in 3d and there is now a tour guide. This update mainly brings bug fixes and stability improvements.

Google Earth Client

• We have put in a fix for the unified_cache_leveldb_leveldb2 directory filling beyond specified cache limits for some Windows users.
• We now handle SSL certificate revocation errors appropriately.
• Lighting of Diorama buildings in OGL now appears correctly.
• Balloons no longer flicker while playing tours.
• We have improved the appearance of image and polygon overlays for users running some families of Radeon GPUs.
• We have included stability improvements for users running GeForce 6xxx and 7xxx cards.
• We have included stability improvements for users running Earth for extended periods of time.
• Imagery now displays for Linux users running specific families of Intel GPUs.

Google Earth Plugin

• Placemark and linestring quality no longer diminishes in the Plugin with browser refresh.

Known issues

• Water surfaces around coastlines will flicker then resolve upon zoom.
• [Pro/Enterprise] Rendering of movies, especially movies that show 3D imagery at a tilt, is very slow. As a workaround, we recommend using Google Earth 6.2.2.6613 for movies that require such a perspective.
