Hi Guys,
I made a program to integrate with google earth (GE) and builds the cache file for a specific area needed by the user. My program called Google Earth Voyager (GEV) because it automatically surf the area you want without any need to surf it by your hands..
Actually I always wanted to scan a big area over GE with a detailed zoom (from only 600 meters altitude) but the problem was that I have to move over the whole area with the mouse so GE will refresh every snapshot and save it in its cache for later offline view.
So, I made this program that will take the details of the area you want to scan and the zooming value and it will fill the cache automatically. In contrast with cache builder, GEV will scan the snapshots in order and it will not take random snapshots, so it will guarantee that you will go for every detailed square in the whole area. Also it stops when it finishes the full scanning and gives the user an information message. It will not go forever.
You can download it from my web page at www.geocities.com/tamatimo.geo/files the file name is GEV3.0.zip
Please refer to the help menu to see how it works, it's very easy, yet very powerful ! Tamer Louis

I don't see why it wouldn't be. Surely it is just continuoully updating the viewpoint to build a cache., this is no different to doing it manually with the mouse.
