Google has released an updated version of Google Earth desktop app.

Google Earth 6.2 comes with Google Plus integration. You can now share snapshots of what you are checking out on your Plus stream right from inside Google Earth.

Google further said that they have updated how Google Earth shows imagery from different sources. Instead of a patchy look, the app would now show a smoother layout. Google said:

Today, we’re introducing a new way of rendering imagery that smoothes out this quilt of images. The end result is a beautiful new Earth-viewing experience that preserves the unique textures of the world’s most defining geographic landscapes—without the quilt effect. This change is being made on both mobile and desktop versions of Google Earth. While this change will appear on all versions of Google Earth, the 6.2 release provides the best viewing experience for this new data.

The search feature inside Google Earth has also been overhauled. It now features the same autocomplete tech that is available on Google Maps. In addition:

We’ve also introduced search layers, which will show all the relevant search results (not just the top ten), so now, when looking for gelato in Milano, you can see all the tasty possibilities. Finally, we’ve added biking, transit and walking directions, so if you’re itching for a change of scenery or looking for a new route for your regular commute, you can now use Google Earth to generate and visualize all your options.
