Google Oceans, Google Mars[/size]
ЦитироватьGoogle Earth now allows you to probe the depths of Earth's oceans as well as fly through the giant canyons or volcanoes on Mars. Google Earth 5.0 was unveiled today, with substantial upgrades for both the Earth and the Red Planet. Google worked in conjunction with NOAA and NASA to incorporate data from our undersea explorations and the spacecraft orbiting Mars. For the first time, you'll be able to look at the two-thirds of our planet covered by the oceans, take a tour below sea level, and even look at historical imagery to see things like coastal erosion. On Mars there's a rich conglomeration of images, including the most recent from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter to provide an immersive 3D view of Mars. Marine scientists say the electronic images will boost awareness and increase public support for marine conservation, while NASA says the new features in Google Mars will aid public understanding of Mars science, while also providing researchers a platform for sharing data similar to what Google Earth provides for Earth scientists.
In Google Oceans, you can click a function called Touring and you can create narrated, illustrated tours, on land or above and below the sea surface, describing and showing things like a hike or scuba excursion, or even a research cruise on a deep-diving submarine.
By choosing among 20 buttons holding archives of information, called "layers" by Google, a visitor can read logs of oceanographic expeditions, see old film clips from the heyday of Jacques-Yves Cousteau and check daily Navy maps of sea temperatures.
While only 5% of the ocean floor is mapped in detail, the replicated seas have detailed topography reflecting what is known about the abyss and continental shelves with rougher areas where little is known.
On Mars, you can enjoy a high-resolution, three-dimensional view of the Red Planet.
There is a mode that enables users to fly virtually through enormous canyons and scale huge mountains on Mars that are much larger than any found on Earth. Users also can explore the Red Planet through the eyes of the Mars rovers and other Mars missions, providing a unique perspective of the entire planet.
Clickable links allow you to learn about new discoveries and explore indexes of available Mars imagery. If you're into working with the raw images from the Mars rovers or orbiting spacecraft, the new Mars mode also allows users to add their own 3D content to the Mars map to share with the world.
Since 2005, Google Earth has been downloaded on half a billion computers, and visitors spend one million hours a day perusing Google Earth and the related Google Maps.
Guess what I'll be doing the next few hours!

а почему это у них на Марсе небо... не красное? :wink:

Потому что это не марс :shock:
Blue Sky on Mars (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/earth/thread?tid=51133006e049a144&fid=51133006e049a1440004620eeabda94c&hl=en)(link)
ЦитироватьIts a known bug, when your graphics card is too old to display the new fancy atmostphere, it loads the old blue one - even on mars :(
Just turn off the 'Atmosphere' from the 'View' menu, for now.
Google Earth Now 'Live From Mars'[/size] (http://google-latlong.blogspot.com/2009/03/live-from-mars.html)
ЦитироватьLive from Mars: NASA's typical release process for Mars satellite imagery requires months, and involves numerous stages of calibration. But thanks to the THEMIS camera team at Arizona State University, you could turn on the new 'Live from Mars' layer and become one of the very first people to lay eyes on images taken just days or even hours ago!....

Кто юзал? Мне по Донецку нужна - профессионально. Улучшения относительно 4-й Pro для ГИС наблюдаются по СНГ?

Вот.

Спасибо, коллега!
У меня на канале 128к не открываецо, выдаёт "проблему при загрузке" :cry:
Завтра попробую на канале 2 мегабита.
Могу меньший кусочек вырезать:

у меня и на 38 Мбит не открывается.
А вы попробуйте извращенным методом - скачайте сначала файл, а потом открывайте. У меня все только так и открылось...
Странно, я с разных айпи и провайдеров открываю.

У меня тоже нормально открывается. Зато Google Earth 5.0 неработает :lol:
