Google Earth Pro is the professional version of Google Earth with advanced features for business users.

Google Earth Pro has following improvements over the free version:

  • Pro performance is faster
  • Pro has higher resolution printing 4800 pixels vs 1000 pixels.
  • Pro able to import GIS data files (e.g. GeoTiff, CSV files, etc.)
  • Pro has area measurement tool
  • Pro has additional layers (e.g. U.S. Parcel and Demographics data)
  • ...

Google Earth Pro has an annual subscription of $399 which includes support.

Both Google Earth and Google Earth Pro use the same imagery. In other words, you don't get higher resolution imagery by paying for the Pro version.

Google Earth is a 3D earth viewer (run as desktop application) and Google Maps is a web browser-based 2-D map viewer. Both share the same Google global imagery database with satellite and aerial imagery including Street View photographs.

Google Maps is now integrated with Google Earth both with the web-browser plugin version of Google Earth embedded in the browser with the 'Earth' view button.

Likewise as of Google Earth 6.0 in the File menu you can now select 'View in Google Maps'. This new integration blurs the line between the two products.

Google maps is more of a web-based GPS, used if you want to know where a place is, how to get somewhere or the address of a building.

Google Earth on the other hand is a program where you can see the word at the comfort of your own home. You can explore various landmarks and significant land features.
