The first 3D buildings in Google Earth were created using 3D modeling applications such as SketchUp and, beginning in 2009, Building Maker, and were uploaded to Google Earth via the 3D Warehouse. In June 2012, Google announced that it would be replacing user-generated 3D buildings with an auto-generated 3D mesh. [26]

This is a list of cities and other locations covered by auto-generated 3D imagery in Google Earth. In 2012, Google began incorporating 3D imagery into the mobile and desktop versions of Google Earth, with coverage of 21 cities in four countries released that year. By March 2015, 3D imagery covering more than 300,000 km² was available and by early 2016 had been expanded to hundreds of cities in over 40 countries, including every U.S. state and encompassing every continent except Antarctica.
In the listing below, each entry refers to a single contiguous area within the given country or subdivision that is entirely covered by 3D imagery. These areas may include numerous smaller settlements and neighboring areas, in addition to the principal location(s) indicated.
