3D Global Terrain

• Topography and Satellite imagery (OFF-LINE): local database with Blue Marble imagery and SRTM data (~450 m/pixel), designed to keep disk usage ~3GB and allow field usage without Internet.

• Multi-format file support: load and display Waypoints, Routes and Tracks from: KMZ, KML, GPX, OV2, ITN, WPT, TRK, GPI (non-encrypted), ABA, NMEA, SDF, RTE (MN6/MN5/MN4), Navigon storage, ASC, CSV (Garmin/Magellan/Route66/Navman).

• Place names: large catalog of countries/capitals/cities/towns and additional points of interest, dynamically adapting by proximity and altitude.

• 3D Engine (FPP): First Person Perspective navigation, designed for usability with mouse/keyboard or joystick, intended for PCs with 3D acceleration.
• Visual tools: latitude/longitude markers and precise coordinate instruments (position, compass/heading/tilt, altitude and ground elevation).

• Manual position specification.
• On-screen indicator with nearest country and regions.
• General world map showing current position.
• Track log recorder; create and save real-time tracks to KML.
• Save current view to JPEG.

• Resolution: 15 arcsec, 464 m/pixel (single resolution)
• Satellite imagery coverage: Global
• Imagery mosaic: Homogenous
• Digital elevation model coverage: 60N to 56S latitude
• Projection: Geographic
• Datum: WGS84
• Vertical units: Meter
• City markers: 2,411,161
• Additional points of interest: 4,252,852
• Database size: 3GB (1 DVD)

3D Global Terrain uses DEM data collected by NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and satellite imagery obtained from Blue Marble Next Generation from NASA's Earth Observatory.

GTerrain - The Game uses 3D Global Terrain engines. This multiplayer game leverages real-world characteristics and (via LAN/local connection) allows you to play with friends in a virtual world.
