For you monty python fans

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

Hmm!So what are the educational implications for this?

Can we get close enough to check behind the school bikesheds? ;)

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

That is because it is urban imagery. Only cities are included. Bit annoying as it has Tampa and Orlando, but not my parents place in the middle which is shame. Have to put up with the blurry black and white view.

Doesn't have Miami though. Weird.

What's the link between that and Monty Python? :dunce:

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

NASA have now released some parts of the world to download, good news is they included the UK so we don't need to keep downloading the images!

Weldone for NASA! :D

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

Top spot ... Downloading now... It's nearly maxing the bandwidth so they must have sort their servers?

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

That link is currently down - I have the files but I'm sure the site mentioned something about using version 1.2c (I've got the 1.2b to 1.2c patch but it errors on install - 1628 - Failed to Complete Installation)

EDIT : AddOn Packs seem to work though :)

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

I do beleive they did a veery famous live show at the hollywood bowl... i may be wrong though...

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

you need to zoom in slowly while the server responds to your request , and i do mean slowly :erm: , what connection are you on ???????? :)

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

thanks for the reply paulyoung666,i'm on 750k speed.
i think the problem is to do with the server fault,because i can do the american cities ok,its just the uk ones i can't get.

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

i dont think everywhere is covered yet , didnt scott mention something about dl'ing the maps for the uk earlier :)

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

You can download the UK maps and cache them (see post #64).

The res is very low though for the UK. It is at best, A-Z standard. Nothing like the USGS stuff.

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

For what its worth you can get aerial pics of uk locations from multimap they're not bad, the high res ones a pay on demand but at least on the low ones you get an overall view of your area :)

Re: Anyone seen this software from NASA
 

I have looked at these and they are interesting but, in the case of my area, around 5 years out of date. Sometimes it takes you quite a while to figure out exactly what you are looking at as everything looks so different from above
