SketchUp's Add Location feature helps you geo-locate your model to a precise location. This feature imports map imagery and terrain data. SketchUp stores your geo-location data as latitude and longitude coordinates in your model. These coordinates are then used by SketchUp, or other applications, to enhance your model.SketchUp的“添加位置”功能可帮助您将模型地理定位到精确的位置。此功能导入地图图像和地形数据。SketchUp将您的地理位置数据存储为模型中的纬度和经度坐标。然后，SketchUp或其他应用程序会使用这些坐标来增强模型。
Add Location can only geo-locate your model on Earth. Sorry folks, Mars isn't an option.添加位置只能在地球上对模型进行地理定位。对不起，伙计们，火星不是一个选择。
The capabilities of Add Location vary depending on what version of SketchUp you are using.添加位置的功能因您使用的SketchUp版本而异。

With Add Location you can accurately visualize your model in its correct location and bring key views to life. Enhance your model with its surrounding context by adding it on top of 2D imagery or 3D terrain.通过添加位置，您可以在正确的位置准确地可视化您的模型，并使关键视图栩栩如生。通过将模型添加到2D图像或3D地形之上，增强其周围环境。
Add even more detail using satellite imagery as a reference, allowing you to model surrounding buildings, roads, and green spaces.使用卫星图像作为参考添加更多细节，使您能够对周围的建筑、道路和绿地进行建模。
Add Location can help get your project started before receiving surveys or even visiting the site. 添加位置可以帮助您在收到调查甚至访问网站之前启动项目。Studying the imagery and terrain you see when geo-locating your model provides a better understanding of your site's details that may affect your design. Examples include:研究模型地理定位时看到的图像和地形，可以更好地了解可能影响设计的网站细节。示例包括：
Using Add Location to geo-locate a model helps SketchUp more accurately represent how shadows appear within your model. Add Location helps:使用“添加位置”对模型进行地理定位有助于SketchUp更准确地表示阴影在模型中的显示方式。添加位置帮助：
After importing from data with Add Location, SketchUp merges the 256 x 256 pixel map tiles into larger sized images, creating SketchUp .skm files. .skm files are similar to the Materials applied by the Paint Bucket tool.使用“添加位置”从数据导入后，SketchUp将256 x 256像素的地图图块合并为更大尺寸的图像，创建SketchUp skm文件。skm文件类似于“Paint 桶”工具应用的材质。
In order to display the Add Location imagery at full resolution, it's often necessary to break a site up into images that can be handled by your graphics hardware. The maximum size image for SketchUp materials depends on your graphics card. 为了以全分辨率显示“添加位置”图像，通常需要将网站分解为图形硬件可以处理的图像。SketchUp材质的最大图像大小取决于您的图形卡。This can range from about 1024 pixels square up to 3072 pixels square. 这可以从大约1024像素见方到3072像素见方。If you need to edit the imagery file inside the skm files keep in mind that you might have to edit multiple images. 如果需要编辑skm文件中的图像文件，请记住，您可能需要编辑多个图像。For more information on editing SketchUp Materials files see Editing Materials in Adding Colors and Textures with Materials.有关编辑SketchUp材质文件的详细信息，请参阅“使用材质添加颜色和纹理”中的编辑材质。
Importing lots of tiles can quickly add several dozen all the way up to several hundreds of Mb worth of imagery data to your model. 导入大量图块可以快速地将几十个图像数据添加到模型中，最高可达数百Mb。In order to keep SketchUp performing well, think about what resolutions you might need. For example you might want to import a small region at very high resolution and use lower resolution data for the outer regions of your site.为了保持SketchUp的良好性能，想想你可能需要什么分辨率。例如，您可能希望以非常高的分辨率导入一个小区域，并为站点的外部区域使用较低分辨率的数据。
