Google Earth

Google Earth has released a new version of its desktop application which one might think was made just for outdoor enthusiasts. 

In this edition, users can recreate the path of a hike, trek, or bike ride using geo-data from a GPS device. Speed, elevation, and other stats are displayed as part of an animation inside Google Earth.  Physical information such as heart rate can also be overlayed in a graph below the animation.

Google Earth product manager Peter Birch made an example video of his bike ride to work.
