Ogle Earth discuss the upcoming virtual globe TITAN from Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging. I also received the invitation and already shared my comments with Leica. First main gripe: it's Windows only. Since we're theoretically not allowed to discuss the app and the screenshots (but nothing was signed), I'll leave this task to others. From Ogle Earth: "Leica TITAN Key Features:
· Load and visualize imagery, vector data and 3D models to create your own ‘MyWorld’
· Add live camera feeds, news feeds, pictures and publish to your ‘MyWorld’
· Chat with other users within the TITAN network and view their ‘local’ data on your desktop
· Create flight path movies and share and publish to your ‘MyWorld’
· Publish a ‘MyWorld’ and view its content on your custom web page
· Create and integrate custom scripts to build unique applications
· Publish a WMS which can be consumed other OGC WMS compliant applications" Update: 12/21 20:38 GMT by S :All Points Blog details the context of this announcement.
