Hi,<br>
<br>
This is the first time I have used a forum!<br>
<br>
I'm a UK Hydrogeologist based in Zambia, I have been using GIS for over a decade and two years ago finally made to leap from ArcGIS to QGIS and have really been impressed.<br>
<br>
One of the main things I really liked was the way that you could use Google Earth imagery directly in the desktop then use the save image function and it would save a georeferenced image.<br>
<br>
In Zambia we often don't have internet fast enough to use this so having them saved was so useful and saved so much georeferencing time.<br>
<br>
Then a few months ago a "developers only" message started appearing on the screens.<br>
<br>
So my question is: do we now need a license to access Google Earth imagery, then download a georeferenced image, if so how do we do it?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
Max<br>
