Google Earth is a proprietary software program for visualizing and annotating map data. We need a free software version of this client.
Accessing Google's data may not be possible, so any client should work with various other data sources, including free map data projects such as OpenStreetMap.
Ways to help.Develop or improve a 3D rendering engine that reads KML files on par with Google Earth. Contribute to free map data services such as the OpenStreetMap project, and contribute to geographical map programs such as Marble.
