Well - the smoke looks a bit crude, tried to extract it from the 
satellite images which of course do not give any height information. 
The smoke is from september 4, the texture image composed from the last 
few weeks to make it cloud free.

Hey ! you signed to be the 1st SpaceShipOne space tourist before Richard
Branson? (who can believe he did not want to be the 1st?)
Your Geo renders are more and more incredible!

Thanks!

Interesting, but that does not tell you much how it looks like from 20km 
height... ;-)

Stunning... and obviously, the 3-arcsecond DEMs for the USA don't 
contain those ugly data gaps I noticed with the Eurasia files (for 
example the Kabul area) - or do they in fact exist even in the DEMs you 
used, and you just somehow interpolated the missing data?

Christoph,

your system, while arguably still not perfect (the LOD could be worked on),
is simply amazing.  The geometry rendering is one thing, but your
atmosphere and lighting are incredible as well.  The whole thing has some
insane educational value -- at least your recent earth images sure sparkle
*my* imagination far better than any map I saw in school.  How long are the
current rendering times?

What's the problem about that?  Of course the data resolution is limited 
but that's something i can hardly influence.

Thanks, render time for the first one was quite slow (because of the 
smoke) - the second one was much better optimized and rendered in 4-5 
hours (2400x1800).
