Google Maps Overlay in Google Earth
This set of overlays will overlay tile sets from Google Maps onto Google Earth. This replaces an older version that no longer works. Includes the following tile sets.
- Maps
- Satellite
- Terrain
You may get missing tiles if you try to zoom in farther than is supported by Google Maps.
Not sure why Google doesn’t just make these available in Google Earth as default layers. Seems like a no-brainer.

I am not able to get this file to work at any scale. Just wondering if I am the only one.
I just tried it again, and working fine for me. Are you selecting one of the radio buttons to turn on the map option? They are all off by default.
Wow, this works! Thanks a lot.
Thanks for this great plugin, works amazing and loads faster than the other similar ones floating on the net.
I just have a problem though. When I installed it yesterday, it was working great. When I opened GEarth today, though, The tiles are clearly visible, having a 1 or 2 pixel thick line in the middle of the squares (like the tiles were imperfectly aligned or something). It wasn’t there when I first installed it. Does this happen to you? Do you have a remedy for it? Much thanks.
great, works very well. thanks for sharing this kml!!

Works great! Seeing the shaded topo with contour lines helps visualize the terrain even better in 3D. It’s not just cool, it’s also useful! Thanks.
