Google Earth enables you to travel, explore, and learn about the world by interacting with a virtual globe. You can view satellite imagery, maps, terrain, 3D buildings, and much more. Earth Engine, on the other hand, is a tool for analyzing geospatial information. You can analyze forest and water coverage, land use change, or assess the health of agricultural fields, among many other possible analyses. While the two tools rely on some of the same data, only some of Google Earth's imagery and data is available for analysis in Earth Engine.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. In line with this mission, Earth Engine organizes geospatial information and makes it available for analysis.
More generally, Google strives to make the world a better place through the use of technology. Earth Engine's technical infrastructure powers humanitarian, scientific, and environmental initiatives which Google is proud to support. Earth Engine provides easy, web-based access to an extensive catalog of satellite imagery and other geospatial data in an analysis-ready format. The data catalog is paired with scalable compute power backed by Google data centers and flexible APIs that let you seamlessly implement your existing geospatial workflows.
This enables cutting-edge, global scale analysis and visualization. Earth Engine is used by researchers, nonprofits, educators, and governmental agencies who use the system to analyze large-scale geospatial data.

Improved coverage of buildings pink and points of interest green in Lagos, Nigeria from to Also see: How Google Maps is using machine learning to ease our parking woes Then again, data and imagery are static. Google would have to have hired pilots traversing the globe all of the time to keep up with potential changes. Instead, Google opts for a compromise. They strive to keep each area of the globe within 3 years of age. Although, they are likely to target high-density population areas more frequently.
Google has a system in place for keeping the images as current as reasonably possible. Sometimes they put slightly older images in the main part and put the up to date images in historical imagery. Sometimes slightly older images are considered more accurate as in the case of post-Katrina New Orleans. Google had updated the city right after the disaster. They later restored images of the city from before the disaster.
