Ask HN: Digital Globe of the World

1 pointsby climber17 ปีที่แล้ว3 comments

I'm building a game, and need a 3D Model of the world, like the geographical data from Google Earth, but at much much much lower resolution.

All I can find on the web (searching via images.google.com) is maps of the earth, but I'd like 3D data.

Thanks!

Have you checked http://edc.usgs.gov/? Seems like they have quite a bit of varied data.

But this is likely not very low resolution.

Another source might be: http://serc.carleton.edu/research_education/geopad/topograph...

And another, although this site seems to be aimed at navigation of yer car through GPS, but might have some value for you.
