Once you’ve found your site, you need to decide if you want more contextual (broader) information on your site or more detailed information.īroader information is the way to go if you don’t plan on modelling the site, or you’re in a rural setting with not much around to be too concerned about. You can also enter a specific address if you have that as well. For example if you wanted to search for a site in Philadelphia, you could type in Philadelphia, PA to start panning around to find what your looking for. Once you generally know where your site location is, open sketchup, hit the file tab and scroll down to Geo-location>Add Location… from here you can search as you would in google maps for your site. The process of importing google earth terrain and/or map into sketchup is pretty seamless (probably because when google first acquired sketchup they were hoping to use it to populate the 3d buildings in google earth).
