        With the 3D Massing Models..

        Do you mean all the bock grey building that shows up in the cities? Actually you can recreate those in a nanosecond. They are just all blocks. Cant you?

          Normally you cannot import the 3D models from GE. I have read different workarounds by using external programs to "grab" the 3D content on screen but I'm not sure about their efficiency and accuracy.

            or their legality. I was under the impression that the models are not licensed to be used outside of google earth. That might be completely wrong though.

              I also think this is one reason why Google does not let people download them.
