Drawing on the map

The Virtual Earth also provides you the facility for editing and drawing on the maps. For this, you can use the drawing tools from the bottom of the collections editor. This facility proves to be useful for planning a journey or marking a route, or important places on the maps. In addition, they can be used for the commercial purposes as Making presentations for business, etc. However, note that the drawing tools are available to you only if you are using the 2D maps.

Notes:

The institute for the application of geospatial technology (IAGT) is a non-commercial organization, which is specialized to provide applications of geospatial information, and it is supported by advanced techniques and tools such as satellite and aircraft based imaging of the earth. It works like a geographic information system, global positing system and visualization technology system.

It serves in three major groups to give geographic information such as government agencies, educational agencies and business based communities.

The government-based agencies of servir-viz provide sponsored conferences, researching on land cover area and fine management projects. It also helps researchers to view and analysis environment related elements.

There are several features provided by NASA World Wind. Some of them are unique to it and so the users can get to use them only through NASA World Wind. Some of the features are described below.

3D Engine

The 3D engine is the feature, which provides the 3D dimensional imagery while browsing through the imagery images. Therefore, when the user zooms in at a particular place he gets a high-resolution LandSat imagery and SRTM elevation data.

As NASA World Wind was specially designed for the common people, making use of this 3D engine is very simple.
