摘要
World Wind是一款由美国宇航局和它的合作伙伴以及开源社区,共同开发的三维地理信息系统。WorldWind既是一个可以通过因特网进行高度互动的地理数据浏览系统,又是一个可以独立运行的单机电脑应用程序。World Wind采用一种新颖的方法,为行星和其它天体提供速度达TB级的影像和高程模式数据服务。World Wind同时又是一款可以为公众提供动态科学数据的地理浏览器,也可以作为一个对陆地、海洋、天空和宇宙进行任务操作的平台。
World Wind is a three-dimensional geographic information system developed by the National Aeronautics Space Administration,its partners,and the open source community.World Wind is both a system for highly interactive geographic data browsing utilizing the Internet,as well as a stand alone computer application.The World Wind system uses a novel approach to rapidly serve terabytes of imagery and elevation models for planets and other celestial objects including satellite and other data of the Earth.World Wind is both a geographic browser for public domain science data,as well as a platform for land,sea,air and space mission operations.
