***Here are a few of the features***



You can:

- Take complete control over the data you want to publish and how you want
it to display including symbology and elevation



- Add layers of available Google Earth data including buildings,
transportation systems, roads, etc to view your project within the context
of the surrounding area



- Publish Civil 3D objects as Google Earth placemarks allowing you to
quickly locate and navigate to a specific place on your project site



-Create drive-throughs along road centerlines and save snapshot views of
your project site from different vantage points



- Associate points in your Civil 3D model with realistic 3D content (in KML
format) such as light poles along a street, houses, or cars



- Publish your data using the coordinate system already specified in your
drawing, pick from over 100 coordinate systems at publishing time, or apply
a user-defined coordinate system.





Just to clarify, this new extension is different than the EXPORTGOOGLEEARTH
command that we talked about during the webcast a few weeks ago. This is a
new wizard-driven application that lets you publish Civil 3D objects and
metadata including points, parcels, alignments, corridor models, surfaces,
and hydraulic networks directly to Google Earth. It's much more powerful and
flexible than the command within Civil 3D.
