Yeah most of the alternatives are mapping apps for phones. I need desktop based GIS type application. Hopefully earth will stay free.

Btw what do you use google earth for?

I use it mostly for network planning - house locations, road paths, post locations and then can add in network equipment as places with boundary overlays and such.

Also use it for land development - plotting boundaries of a piece of land, planning use of said land.

Finally for surveys of the two above using a GPS to plot the survey course and then import all my notes / points into the map.

Such a useful tool for me.
