Google Earth Studio is a web-based version of Google Earth used for animations using Google Earth's 3D imagery. As of June 2021, it is preview-only and requires signing up to use it. [ 81 ] It features keyframe animation, presets called "Quick-Start Projects", and 3D camera export.
Web Mercator, Google Web Mercator, Spherical Mercator, WGS 84 Web Mercator [1] or WGS 84/Pseudo-Mercator is a variant of the Mercator map projection and is the de facto standard for Web mapping applications.
The Earth-centered, Earth-fixed coordinate system (acronym ECEF), also known as the geocentric coordinate system, is a cartesian spatial reference system that represents locations in the vicinity of the Earth (including its surface, interior, atmosphere, and surrounding outer space) as X, Y, and Z measurements from its center of mass.
At the outer most zoom level, 0, the entire world can be rendered in a single map tile. Each zoom level doubles in both dimensions, so a single tile is replaced by 4 tiles when zooming in. This means that about 22 zoom levels are sufficient for most practical purposes. The Web Mercator projection is used, with latitude limits of around 85 degrees.
After reading the article, I have a much greater understanding of Google Earth Engine and definitely learned a lot more about it and how it functions. You guys did a great job at explaining Google Earth Engine in a way thats provided good detail, but is easy for people to understand. The subtitles your group created make the page very organized.
Orthographic views project at a right angle to the datum plane. Perspective views project from the surface onto the datum plane from a fixed location. Aerophotogrammetry, orthophoto from drone, Città Alta, Bergamo, Italy. This photo is properly projected on elevation model, yet on a single building scale, a small tilt is noticeable.
Traditional "virtual views" are now only part of digital mapping. In many cases, users can choose between virtual maps, satellite (aerial views), and hybrid (a combination of virtual map and aerial views) views. With the ability to update and expand digital mapping devices, newly constructed roads and places can be added to appear on maps.
