Educational use of Google Earth Free in schools, universities is allowed

Because the EULA of Google Earth Free and Plus doesn’t allow its use “in any commercial or business environment,” some educators were worried they might not be able to use it in an educational setting. A trip to the Help Center resolves this question quite deftly:

Can Google Earth be used in an educational setting?

The use of Google Earth for educational purposes in primary, secondary, and post-secondary institutions is OK.

  1. I work in an international educational system (SABIS- international school of choueifat). We are in the process of publishing our own books. In the science books, google earth is mentioned in different aspects and so illustration is needed. I need to get copyright permission to publish maps taken from google earth in our science books for grades 2 and 3.
