Replace the Bing map with that of google Earth.

Good morning guys, I always use the geographic location option. But the map is very outdated, does anyone know if it would replace the bing map, and put Google Maps or Earth?
Sorry for English, I live in Brazil and Google does not translate correctly.[5f73f505cadb04b1d67c38b5ff5a274d]_Image%202017-12-12%20at%208.17.52%20AM.2e0y3Q1u2729.png

The tool built into AutoCAD uses Bing maps, period.

If that doesn't work for you, you are free to pursue other alternatives, such as plex.earth.

FJN,

 

Or the free <<<ArcGIS for AutoCAD>>> which uses ESRI's excellent imagery.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

In addition to the great suggestions already made in this thread, please also check the Autodesk App Store as their are additional add-ins that should provide this functionality.

Doesn't ESRI use the same imagery that Autodesk uses?
