Do you like Google Earth on your desktop? You may want to try Earthscape on your iPhone. Earthscape Basic is the world’s first virtual globe application for mobile devices available now for the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod Touch.
Another cool feature of Earthscape is the ability to take and share geotagged photos with others. With hundreds of thousands of geotagged Wikipedia articles, you can learn about the geological forces that shaped our world, historic events that changed civilization, and monuments we have built in our quest to understand the universe we live in. Or perhaps you are more interested in finding out exactly where the Hollywood sign is, or where the Coliseum in Rome is located it’s all there.
The entire United States can be viewed in detail, usually comparable or slightly better than current desktop solutions. Imagery outside of the United States is currently limited to 15 meter resolution — enough to discern major roads, but not houses. As we acquire the rights to use more detailed international imagery, it will be provided to Earthscape users as a free upgrade.
Update: Google has now released an official version of Google Earth available for free in the App Store.
