Richt je wereld in

DateSaturday, May 15, 2010 at 8:05PM

Google Earth brengt de wereld mooi plat in kaart. Dankzij Google Sketchup kan daar ook een 3D visie op worden gegeven. Google organiseert een wedstrijd waarbij plaatsen wordt opgeroepen hun dorp of stad driedimensionaal aan Google Earth toe te voegen. De winnaar ... Lima! Mooi!

Jorge De Albertis Bettocchi, a 38 year-old corporate business attorney, modeled the Barranco District of Lima. He entered the competition to generate pride among his fellow citizens and created his 3D models to serve as a tool for tourism, promotion, investment and preservation of Barranco’s historic architecture.

We’ll be awarding the local school district with US$10,000 and the SketchUp team is planning a visit to Barranco later this summer. Visit the Google Earth Gallery to download a 3D tour of Barranco, Peru.
