Clock Tower Accepted into Google Earth!
A couple months ago, I made a 3D model of the Clock Tower in Santa Cruz and submitted it to Google Earth. It has finally been reviewed and has been accepted into Google Earth! If you want to see it, just search “santa cruz town clock” in Google Earth and make sure the 3D Buildings Layer is turned on. There is one strange part though, on the top roof level–the appears to be a small hole on one of the edges that looks into the untextured interior (a light blue color). I overlaid the original KMZ file on the Google Warehouse with the 3D Buildings Layer, and the problem does not occur in the original, so Google must be doing some additional form of compression on buildings added to the Google Earth layer. I’ve posted in the Google Earth Group to see if there is a fix for this, but other than that small inconsistency, it looks great!
