Note that the video capture was performed at 10 frames-per-second so these two videos are not as smooth as they would be if I used a graphics video capture card. I would suggest that you watch the two short videos below (I recorded all the videos on my home Tower) – as they will give you a quick idea of the utility of using NASA’s WorldWind Earth modeling and simulation tool. The developer is only limited by his or her imagination. Why I think it’s Very Coolįrom my perspective it’s a high fidelity Earth model that has a tremendous amount of unique and exciting capabilities and features (trust me – this article doesn’t even scratch the surface – no pun intended – of what this system is capable of doing).

So if you use the latest / greatest version of WorldWind along with a full set of terrain files, the model will look much better than what is seen in these videos. Note that for this article I used an older version of WorldWind and a limited set of terrain files. The specific site for the Java application side is here – This article covers the application of WorldWind Java – but the classes are pretty much the same across all three application types. Organizations around the world use WorldWind to monitor weather patterns, visualize cities and terrain, track vehicle movement, analyze geospatial data and educate humanity about the Earth.ġ) Web WorldWind – to build Web applications in your browser.Ģ) WorldWind Android – to build Android applications.ģ) WorldWind Java – to build standalone Java applications for Linux or Windows. WorldWind allows developers to quickly and easily create interactive visualizations of 3D globe, map and geographical information. WorldWind is an open source virtual globe API.
What is WorldWind? Well let me quote NASA’s site directly:
