Virtual Earth

Virtual Earth, now known as Bing Maps, is a digital mapping service that provides detailed geographical information, including satellite images, street maps, and location data. It allows users to explore the world interactively through their computers or devices, offering features like zooming, directions, and geographic search. Essentially, it’s a virtual representation of the Earth's surface, helping people find places, plan routes, and understand spatial relationships without needing physical maps. It combines various data sources to deliver real-time, detailed views and navigational tools in a user-friendly, online platform.
