30 Arcsecond Imagery in WorldWind

Written by Chad on February 3rd, 2009

As I said before, I have been working on getting the new 30 Arcsecond Bathymetry into WorldWind, and it has been processed into tiles and added to the WorldWind ZoomIt! layer.

ww_30arcsecond_bathy

This imgery can also be used in OpenLayers, and any other application that can access and display WW tiles.

    Very interesting!

    How does one access the new layer programmatically? What is the server URL and local cache path used?

    Server URL looks like this: http://s2.tileservice.worldwindcentral.com/getTile?T=global.topo_bathy_30arc&firstLevel=1&L=2&X=10&Y=4

    Local cache is WW Install/Cache/global.topo_bathy_30arc

    You can look in worldwindcentral.com for more information on the WW URI as it is not a lat/lon number to get the tile.

    Thanks!

    Is there a page anywhere describing the process of setting up a WW.Net-compatible tile server on shared hosting?

    You can start here: http://worldwindcentral.com/wiki/Data_serving_scripts

    I have used the php script to serve locally.
