trying out Google Earth Studio for planetarium fulldome content

When I was googling for ways to create fulldome or 360 VR content from Google Earth (desktop), came across this interesting product.

https://earth.google.com/studio/docs/making-animations/rendering/

Apparently, this is a separate product from Google Earth (desktop) and is invite only at present. I sent in a request and got approved within 12 hours. 

We can render 360 VR scenes fairly easily, with the caveat that their attribution must appear onscreen, and we should not sell the resulting content.

Using OCVWarp, I tried out turning the rendered 360 VR files into fulldome content, a couple of examples below.



Edit: For exporting regular flat content from the Desktop version of Google Earth, this youtube video has a step-by-step tutorial.
