3D-GLOBE education: The atlas for school, teachers and the public
The 3D-GLOBE education is a 3-dimensional atlas with 18 maps in high-resolution. Almost all important topics are covered, e.g.:
- Climate and climate change
- Vegetation cover
- Topography & tectonics
- Population
All maps have been calculated from data provided by highly-reputated research organisations. Additional information and entertainment is achieved by the following functions:
- 3D-flights over land and sea bottom
- 3D-illuminations with changing sun levels and directions
- Stereoscopical 3D-views (analglyphs) of all maps
The 3D-GLOBE is licensed under the terms of CREATIVE COMMONS 3.0 -BY-NC-ND- and may be distributed for non-commercial purposes without any restrictions.
There is one version for download (630MB) and another in high-resolution on DVD (6GB). The DVD-ROM can be purchased separately fo 20 US $ plus postal fees. We are also looking for public web servers to provide you a free link for download as well.
