Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge
Google Earth Includes Refuge Boundaries
Google Earth allows users to display high-resolution aerial and
satellite imagery of virtually any place on earth – and now the
boundaries of the National Wildlife Refuge System.
The basic free version of Google Earth includes dozens of data
layers with an assortment of mapping information such as roads,
geographic pictures, famous places, businesses, 3D buildings and
picture galleries. When a layer is turned on, icons appear with links
to additional information.
To view the Refuge System, first download the most recent version
of Google Earth and click “download Google Earth 5.0.: To activate
the Refuge System boundaries, in the “layers” panel on the bottom
left of the screen, scroll down to “places of interest” and click the
plus sign (+) to expand the list. Scroll down again to the “parks and
recreation areas” and expand this list. Click in the empty box to the
left of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Refuge System boundaries
are now turned on.
By pressing Ctrl+Alt+C, users can copy a screen image for use in
documents or presentations. More advanced options available in
the free version of Google Earth include adding customized
information, recording a personalized flyby tour, advanced viewing
option such as 3D terrain and ocean bathymetry, and adding map
plug-ins to Web sites. GPS tracks, including from many Garmin,
Magellan, and NMEA-compatible devices, can be uploaded to Google
Earth, allowing a user to visualize running, hiking and biking trails.
