" Google Earth to let users post stories, photos"
谷歌地图将开放用户发布文字和图片功能
Alphabet Inc (GOOGL.O) wants users to post millions of stories, video and
photos on its Google Earth platform in the next few years, the program chief
said Tuesday at a launch event in Brazil for content focused on showcasing the
Amazon rainforest.
谷歌公司希望用户在接下来的几年里在其谷歌地图平台上发布大量的文字、视频以及图片。平台运营主管于周二在巴西的发布会上表示，其内容将聚焦于展示亚马逊热带雨林的风貌。
The "Voyager" tool allows Internet surfers to take interactive tours of
exotic destinations on Google Earth led by the likes of primatologist Jane
Goodall, with photos, information and maps.
谷歌“旅行者”工具支持网民在谷歌地图上将异国情调的图片、信息和地图发布到谷歌地图上进行旅行互动，为首的是灵长类动物学家珍妮·古道尔。
However, regular users will be able to create their own unedited content
for private or public use within two to three years, Google Earth Director
Rebecca Moore said.
谷歌地图的主管丽贝卡摩尔说，普通用户在两到三年里可以打造他们自己的编辑内容作为私人或者公共使用。
"The story of your family history, the story of your favorite hiking trip -
it could be anything. It doesn’t have to be profound," she said at the
event.
她在发布会上说;“内容不一定多么的意义深远，可以是你家里发生的故事，也可以是你最热爱的徒步旅行，可以是任何事。”
Moore took the stage at the event in Sao Paulo to unveil the "I am the
Amazon" project, which has mapped 11 sites to document the relationship between
the rainforest and its people, touching on topics like food, water and cultural
origins.
穆尔参加了圣保罗的发布会，展示了“我是亚马逊”的项目，该项目绘制了11个地点来记录雨林和当地居民的关联，涉及到的话题诸如食物、水和文化渊源等。
To tell the stories of communities such as the Yanomami people, Cinta Larga
and the Boa Vista Quilombola, Google and partners used tools like 3D cameras to
accompany satellite images with videos and also text.
为了讲述诸如雅诺马马人这种社区的故事，辛塔拉尔加、博阿维斯塔、谷歌及其合作伙伴运用了诸如3D相机结合卫星图像视频以及文本等工具。
Moore did not reveal the budget for the project but she ruled out the idea
of advertising on the platform and said that it was not Google’s intention to
turn a profit from the venture.
摩尔并没有透露该项目的预算，但是她否认了在平台上进行广告宣传的想法并表示，谷歌无意从这项投资中获利。
"Google Earth is our gift to the world," she said. "In terms of budget,
Google has nice revenue from advertising, and not everything Google does has to
make money."
她说：“谷歌地图是我们给这个世界的礼物。”“就预算而言，谷歌有不错的广告收入，并不是说谷歌做的每一件事都要赚钱。”
