German Tagesschau uses Google Earth
July 18, 2007 |
As can be seen in the screen shots the main institution for TV-news in Germany, the Tagesschau, despite their enormous financial possibilities and own large excellent educated staff more and more uses Google Earth as it comes to graphical support of reports. Latest example is the coverage of the plane-crash in Sao Paulo. The screen shots are taken from the afternoon-edition (17.00 CET) which can be watched for free on the Tagesschau-webpage.


The events of Sao Paulo as well do contain a certain irony as not only the affected plane belongs to the brasilian airline TAM …

… but also the destroyed building.
