Here is a good alternative http://www.alpix.com/3d/worldwin/WW2d_Java.html its a Java JOGL 3D client that uses the Nasa World Wind images and data. -Rob On 11/25/06, Arnt Karlsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sat, 25 Nov 2006 12:41:36 +0100, Melchior wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]: * Melchior FRANZ -- Thursday 23 November 2006 15:47: Bright future ahead.

[Flightgear-devel] fgfs + gaia (google earch client) = moving map
Today I tried the free Google Earth client gaia for the first time (http://gaia.serezhkin.com/) and connected it to FlightGear: $ mkfifo /tmp/gaia $ fgfs --garmin=file,out,0.1,/tmp/gaia --aircraft=ufo $ gaia --gps=nmea:///tmp/gaia This makes a nice moving map. OK, it's not moving yet, but you see a trace of red dots in a full resolution Google Earth data window. I'm not happy with the update speed yet, but that should be easy to fix. (I think that gaia always stops sharpening the image when a new nmea package comes in.) Blurry screenshot (due to low jpeg quality; the red cursor in the lower half is much easier to see): http://members.aon.at/mfranz/fgfs-gaia.jpg [18 kB] m. PS: cc to the gaia author.

Would make a great in-car navigation solution... (Since Google Earth also has trip planning abilities). Which would also need all the Google Earth terrain data to be available offline, fx. on a DVD. Not sure if Keyhole is looking into using their software as this type of tool. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
