Let us consider the mons of Mars: What is mons? This is a frequent question, which ponders many of the users. Mons are nothing but a integral part of the structural features of Mars. It is the broadest volcanoes and even the tallest in the whole of the solar system. This mons is named Olympus. This mons is described very well by the scientists. These mons are very popular. After research was carried out it was found out that mons revealed only the albedo features and not topographic part. Telescopic images revealed that the feature, which was shown by albedo, is in reality a shield volcano. So the name Olympus was adopted to match with the shield or albedo feature.

Some of the NASA World Wind features which you can use for this purpose are Blue Marble, Landsat, or USGS public domain data. You can even use them on websites even for commercial use. We know there are number of earth satellite imagery programs. Many of these use satellite imagery almost a month or two old. But a special thing about NASA it is able to shoe you real time traffic data if you have very high speed internet connection.

Add-ons and plugins: NASA World Wind is loaded with a number of Add-ons and plugins. The add-ons are actually small extensions, which provide added functionality to NASA World Wind. A few of these are discussed under.

The biggest advantage offered by the Google Earth software application is that the end users of the Google Earth software application can view the earth as a three dimensional image. All said and done, the fact that the earth can be viewed as a three dimensional image has a lot of implications for the end users. It is easy to say that a two dimensional image is not the as bad as it is made out to be. It is easy to say that a lot of work can be done using two dimensional images as well.

Virtual earth (2005) now known as ‘Bing Maps for Enterprise’ is a geospatial Mapping platform. Virtual Earth is geo satellite software developed by Microsoft. The Virtual earth platform consist of three services, like Virtual earth map control, Virtual earth web services along with Map Point web services

The Virtual Earth Map Control includes impressive imagery and enables rich mapping and enterprise-class application development, with an intuitive JavaScript programming model. Virtual Earth Web Services offers static map images, direct map tile access, one-box search functionality, geocoding, reverse geocoding, and routing.

Google Earth has been a major sources o contribution to further opening of the world’s horizons as it has made some amazing discoveries. Recently it found a untouched villa in Rome, that was not thought to have existed. Google Earth is the satellite service developed by KeyHole Inc. and bought by Google in 204. Later the Google team rechristened it as ‘Google Earth’ from its previous name of ‘Earth Viewer. Viewed by millions of people throughout the world Google Earth covers most of the earth’s mass and oceanic area. Except a few islands, it covers the entire world. Its user extends from Chile to Greece and from United States to Indonesia.

Do you want to explore our planet in 3D? The software debuted in 2004 and helped internet users to view the planet in a different way. The software has some awesome features that make it most useful for geography and geology students. If you want to download the software, it can be easily downloaded for free from NASA through mirror websites.

NASA World Wind will allow you to zoom from high satellite altitude to whichever place on Earth's surface at neighborhood level. NASA World Wind uses high resolution imagery and digital aerial photographs. It also makes use of elevation data from SRTM for enabling you to experience Earth in a 3 dimension, visually robust mode. You will feel as if you are sitting on a magic carpet that is taking you around the planet.

The NASA World Wind provides features as the visual tools and landmark set. The downloading and installing, the NASA World Wind though may require some system requirements are free of cost and easy.

The visual tools

The NASA world wind provides the user the visual tools as the data for latitudes longitudes and coordinate data. These are useful for knowing the geographical position of the place the user is currently viewing.

The user can select whether to display them or not. The NASA world displays them on the globe itself. The visual tools can be used along with the other features of the world wind.

Google Earth is already widely popular among earthlings. Being the market leader in satellite imagery Google Earth covers the entire earth except a few islands. Moreover Google Earth also covers data within the sea, much to the benefit of marine scientists and anyone interested in underwater life and resources. Google Earth is high- tech satellite based imagery software. Developed by Keyhole Inc. it was sold to Google in 2004. In 2005, Google christened it as ‘Google Earth’ from ‘Earth Viewer’ that it was previously called.
