World Wind Is

What Is World Wind? Solves the Geo-browser problem

Makes app the master instead of a servant

WWJ is a Component Provides geographic context for application behaviors Does the hard stuff

Terrain generation from real, remote data at hi frequency Image selection from TB of remote imagery Rapid management of data retrieval from distributed sources Getting it all to show up at the right place and time

In a component as simple to use as a Jbutton Viewing and picking

Cross-platform and Open-source Extensibility is THE major objective

WWJ Is Not an Application
