Please don't let this be an early April's fool joke.

If it didn't come from you, I wouldn't believe it would to be true...

Wow! Will this only be operable in the USA or applicable worldwide (as in all areas)?

I was wondering how it gets the building data with heights? My town isn't exactly NYC.
Is there a way of seeing what that data looks like on the web some where?
I tried openstreetmap.org but only saw 2d info. Can you turn on 3d somewhere?

This is from G Earth Pro which is free. You can use it and put your models in there, but you can not get models out from it...at least for us mortals, which Mr. Whaat obviously is not.

In the video he said it used Openstreetmap. I heard nothing about Google Earth.

A couple days ago I was really impressed with this.

I was not paying attention on what he said...it would be too much.

The plugin will work with any place in the entire world but the richness of the data does vary. You can check out osmbuildings.org to see the richness of the data in your area of interest.

Only question I have is about building's textures.

Will it be possible or easy to import them?
