This is an attempt to reverse-engineer undocumented parts of Google Earth. Main goal is to document the results and to provide code that emerges.

Earth to OBJ file downloader

We can dump a textured 3D model (*.obj with *.bmp and *.jpg) using the following scripts. They require Node.js v8 and npm:

# Install dependencies (tested with node@8.15.0, npm@6.4.1)
npm install

# Find octant of latitude and longitude
node lat_long_to_octant.js 37.420806884765625 -122.08419799804688

# Dump octant with max-level 20
node dump_obj.js 20527061605273514 20

Exported files will be in ./downloaded_files/obj. They can be opened in Blender like this.

Notes

Alternative methods for finding octants:

You can use this to dump json and raw data instead of obj:

node dump_obj.js 20527061605273514 20 --dump-json --dump-raw

URL structure:

"https://kh.google.com/rt/🅐/🅑"
 - 🅐: planet
       - "earth"
       - "mars"
       - ...
 - 🅑: resource
       - "PlanetoidMetadata"
       - "BulkMetadata/pb=!1m2!1s❶!2u❷"
          - ❶: octant path
          - ❷: epoch
       - "NodeData/pb=!1m2!1s❸!2u❹!2e❺(!3u❻)!4b0"
          - ❸: octant path
          - ❹: epoch
          - ❺: texture format
          - ❻: imagery epoch (sometimes)

Misc:

General info:
 - Everything is stored in an octree.

Roles of resources:
 - PlanetoidMetadata points to first BulkMetaData.
 - BulkMetaData points to other BulkMetaData and to NodeData.
 - NodeData contains actual meshes and textures.

Versioning:
 - BulkMetaData and NodeData are versioned using epoch numbers.
 - PlanetoidMetadata provides epoch of first BulkMetaData.
 - BulkMetaData provides epochs of underlying resources.
 - Current version of a resource can be determined recursively.
 
NodeData:
 - Vertex Buffer:
    - 8 bytes per point: X,Y,Z,W,U,U,V,V
    - XYZ: position, W: octant mask, UV: texture coordinates
 - Texture:
    - Format 1: JPEG
    - Format 6: S3 DXT1 RGB
 - Raw format: see proto/README.md
BulkMetaData:
 - Oriented Bounding Box
    - Dump OBB to obj: https://gist.github.com/retroplasma/5698808bfaa63ffd03f751a84fa6ce14
    - Latlong to octant using OBB (unstable): https://github.com/retroplasma/earth-reverse-engineering/blob/443a3622ce9cb12cd4460cc6dc7999cc703ae67f/experimental_latlong_to_octant.js
