Abstract

In recent years, visualization for the Earth and environmental sciences has developed significantly. Among the most notable advances has been the rise of Web-based tools colloquially called geobrowsers. These tools enable users from a range of sciences to access an enormous quantity of satellite and aerial photography with detailed maps to create a high-quality virtual Earth e.g., McCaffrey et al., 2008; Oberlies et al., 2009.

It provides free tools for most major computing platforms and handheld devices, together with the ability to incorporate data from users.
