## What it is
Open source release of Google Earth Enterprise, a geospatial suite for building and hosting custom 3D globes and 2D maps from imagery, vector, and terrain data. It includes Fusion for data processing, a server for hosting globes, and client components for viewing. The repository has been archived by Google.

## Use cases
- host a private 3D globe server
- build custom 2D maps from my own imagery
- fuse raster vector and terrain data into a flyable globe
- self-host an offline alternative to Google Earth
- serve geospatial imagery on an internal network

## When to choose
- you need to self-host private 3D globes or 2D maps on Linux
- you have legacy Google Earth Enterprise assets to continue serving
- you want full control over geospatial imagery hosting without external services

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained software with recent fixes
- you target modern OS versions beyond CentOS 6/7 or Ubuntu 16.04
- you want Google's commercial imagery - this only serves your own data
- you need a lightweight mapping solution rather than a full server suite

## Facets
- artifact type: application
