SAN FRANCISCO — Google Inc., the most-used Internet search engine, released a new version of its satellite mapping software that includes three-dimensional life-like images of buildings. Google Earth 4 was made available as a test version Monday. The software is free and includes a new user interface, Google said. Google is making improvements to Earth, software it acquired in 2004, and its maps website as it battles Microsoft Corp. and Yahoo! Inc. for a larger share of the ad market for local businesses.
