Hi Glenn, The work is really impressive, we have done "something similar" on OSG Virtual Planets, but the access to geospatial data is done by Java and gvSIG.
Is it possible in osgEarth to change layers during runtime?. We made lots of efforts for that in our work but with some difficulties. Greetz Rafa.
