How Does Urban expansion across the world: Timelapse in Google Earth Work?

It’s like watching a cookie spread in the oven, but for cities, and it happens super fast!

Google Earth is like a giant map that you can zoom into, and when you watch an urban expansion timelapse, it's like seeing a city grow from just a few houses to a huge busy place in just seconds.

Imagine taking photos of your neighborhood every day for years, some days just one new house appears, other days a whole block gets built. Then, someone takes all those photos and makes them into a video, where each photo changes really fast so it looks like the city is growing in real time.

That’s what Google Earth does with cities around the world! It uses satellite images, like pictures taken from space, and puts them together to show how cities change over years. Then, when you press play, it’s like watching a movie of a city getting bigger and busier, all in just a few seconds.

You can see little streets turn into highways, forests become neighborhoods, and tiny towns grow into big, busy cities, all from your screen! It’s like time travel for cities. It’s like watching a cookie spread in the oven, but for cities, and it happens super fast!
