I have a Google Earth cache file.
Is there any way to open the Google image from a cache file in QGIS 3?
I had done it in standalone PC successfully. Does it works also in Mapped Network Drive also.

I don't believe qgis is able to process Google Earth cache file. I advise you not to wast your time. Instead use SAS Planet alternative. It stores tiles locally as file:///D:/Software/SAS.Planet/cache_gmt/z{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg
Then you may use TileLayer or MBTiles plugin For version under than 3.0.
qgis version 3.0 and above :
Please use XYZ Tiles configured as follow :
Then add your Tiles Folder Path : file:///D://Software//SAS.Planet//cache_gmt//sat//z{z}//{y}//{x}.jpg <--
Update: SAS.PLANET Configuration :
Click on Settings>Options>
Default cache type : GlobalMapper Tiles
GlobalMapper Tiles (GMT) cache folder: cache_gmt
Reload some cache again (by playing around the displayed map)

I have a suggestion for who are working on leaflet and need SAS planet data integration, you need only to add this line into your code to call the tiles:
var SAS = '/cache_gmt1/sat/z{z}/{y}/{x}.jpg', 
- As I am new to it. How to setup my Apache server to use it for leaflet and do it SAS integration. I want to do it for LAN network. I want to open SAS tiles in LAN network in QGIS. Any help?Sachin– Sachin2019-07-06 11:33:23 +00:00Commented Jul 6, 2019 at 11:33
- @Sachin you need to load all your maps all zoom levels online using SAS of course then copy the data folder (containing map tiles) to your htdocs or www or whatever.Ilyes Tounsi– Ilyes Tounsi2021-11-20 06:51:42 +00:00Commented Nov 20, 2021 at 6:51
