New HRISE Images of Mars Released

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009

Huge image release for September on the HRISE site this month, this month alone has a release of over 1500 images that will give you an “Airplane Like View” of the Martian surface.  The reason for the view is that the angle of the camera was not straight down, but at an angle of 22 degrees to give better views of features such as craters, slopes and valleys.

With a resolution of ~ 1 meter you will not be able to pick out landing craft and rovers though.  But still, the imagery is amazing to see.

Virtual Earth Udate… Still No Better Coverage of Pennsylvania

Friday, March 27th, 2009

Ok VE guys… I keep asking this almost every single update… can we please get some better stuff of Pennsylvania? (Birds eye views of the middle of nowhere??) ;~)  But anyway, I have been browsing the latest VE update and the new and updated imagery is looking quite nice.

And of course, you can view the new ortho imagery in WorldWind and WWJava with the additional plug-in or code.

A few days ago, the Polish Geoportal did some updates.  M_K from the WorldWind Forums has put together a WorldWind XML file to view the imagery in WorldWind.  Just copy the file into the Config\Earth folder.
