Is there any possible and realistic way to make Google Earth "Live"?

Is there any possible and realistic way to make Google Earth "Live"?


Please help :D|||The short answer is no.





The long answer is Google would need a whole lot of satellites to accomplish that and it would be very, very expensive. In fact, you can't get close detail of the entire surface of the earth now. And that would cost serious bucks. If you had a few satellites under your personal control then you could do it but if you had that kind of money, you'd not ask these questions on Yahoo!|||No. Google Earth is made up of satellite imagery, and some of it is actually several years old. You CAN go to www.earthcam.com and find live feeds all over the place, but not Google Earth.|||Simple answer: No.





You would need access to a sever which has live feed, such as a server owned by Northrup Grumman or the NSA. Otherwise, you would have to launch several of your own satellites, coordinate them to cover specific parts of the globe at the specific times, setup an expensive data transfer link and then buy a very expensive server and then configure Google Earth to connect to it (that's the easiest part).
