equivalent to "Google Earth".  

Marble-Qt comes with several map views, including:
Atlas
OpenStreetMap (http://planet.openstreetmap.org/)

NOTE: This is the last Win2k version.

----------

Marble-Qt can install additional maps.  You have to extract 
these files into Marble's maps directory.  On Windows this 
is data/maps in your Marble installation.  Note that many more 
maps are available for Marble, although these will be sufficient 
for the majority of Marble users.
