[GeoNode-users] Google Earth (Satellite) doesn't work anymore on Geonode 2.6.3

[Paolo Corti]

Today I have received the following information from Google support:






*We are in the process of completely disallowing keyless usage, but
currently, it will work intermittently.  It will break again.  Please keep
in mind that keyless usage was deprecated about a year ago, but it was only
with changes starting June 11th that we started to cause it to break
[1].  The code from that Github page is 1) not passing a key, 2) using a
really obsolete method of loading the API and 3) redundantly trying to load
the API after it was already loaded.  The Github code is outside of our
scope of support, but you may want to reach out to the issues section there
[2].  I do note that that code hasn't been updated in 3 years, so you may
need to investigate a more modern solution to do what you are trying to
do.[1] https://developers.google.com/maps/billing/important-updates#starting_june_11th
<https://developers.google.com/maps/billing/important-updates#starting_june_11th>[2]

hope it clarifies things
