Importing Google Earth into C# Application


I am trying to run Google Earth in a c# application. I did some research and found that the Google Earth API will stop working on December 12, 2015, however, my c# application needs to work longer than that. Is there a way to import Google Earth into a C# Application without using this API?


Solution

  • There are several alternatives. As stated in this thread, you can use:

    Another alternative is Google Maps API.

    These may not be a perfect match, but depending on your requirements, they may suit your needs well enough. As to the C# aspect of it, you will need to dig deeper into whichever option you prefer, but I doubt it will be much more complicated than dealing with Google Earth API.

    Note: The "Plug pulling" on Google Earth API happened due to security issues. For more info go here
