Hi Landon,
If you just want to share a visualization of some 3D model you maybe
can go with 3D-PDF (see example [1]). There is an opensource toolchain
using meshlab [2] and LaTEX to compile those 3D PDFs from 3D models
(from all formats which you can load into meshlab).
If you want to share

We've used VTP (vterrain.org) and modified the GUI of it's Enviro viewer to
be a little more end-user friendly. VTP does a good job of providing an
interactive 3d environment of DEM and texture (e.g satellite image), and
optionally 3d structure models. On the downside, you have

Ossim (www.ossim.org) has OssimPlanet which DOES model a globe but it can be
an effort to set up (I've never tried it).
FYI there are downloadable binary OSSIM packages for Windows and Mac at

And also Ratman:

which even includes the data streaming server software.

I'm curious if anyone knows of a decent open source viewer for 3D maps.
Does such a viewer exist? How widespread is its adoption?
I know that Adobe PDF has become a fairly common way to share 2D maps
digitally, but I didn't see a lot on the web about a PDF solution for 3D
maps. If you build 3D
