Google Official Blog announced the release of Google Earth for Android tablets.

With the recent release of tablets based on Android 3.0, we wanted to take full advantage of the large screens and powerful processors that this exciting new breed of tablets had to offer, the Blog said.

New update of Google Earth for Android makes Earth look better than ever on tablet. Google has added support for fully textured 3D buildings, so tour through the streets will look more realistic than ever.

There’s also a new action bar up top, enabling easier access to search, the option to “fly to your location” and layers such as Places, Panoramio photos, Wikipedia and 3D buildings.

“Moving from a mobile phone to a tablet was like going from a regular movie theatre to IMAX. One of my favorite buildings to fly around in Google Earth has always been the Colosseum in Rome, Italy:With the larger tablet screen, users can fly around the 3D Colosseum while also browsing user photos from Panoramio,” the Blog post says.

Google Earth for Android tablets version is available for devices with Android 2.1 and above.
