# Using Google Earth import and Watershed Analysis to Estimate Flow Path

Users are able to use the import google earth points to produce watersheds and this can be viewed in 3D view as well .

(For imported survey points, user can refer to [Watershed Delineation in 3D view](https://mes100.com/blog/watershed-delineation-in-3d-view/) )

Therefore, without survey points, the watershed delineation can be produced for preliminary works.
