pimpshiznid Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 Are the servers back online? 584745504[/snapback] Nope. They are working on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicfume Veteran Posted October 27, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 27, 2004 Sigh, their Landsat servers are still down, this is getting so uninteresting. Like this program a lot, only if the servers worked!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachman123 Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 They finially got a cache to download for my area, but it's too undetailed to be of any use. Hopefully when the servers are up there'll be more detail. I DEFINITELY couldn't tell the difference between a car and a truck from the cache I have.... Can barely see a car.

pimpshiznid Posted October 27, 2004 Author Share Posted October 27, 2004 Wow... While waiting for the LandSat servers to come back up, a guy went ahead and made his own server, and made it so it works with WorldWind. Even the NASA guys are impressed. Read more here, and download the files to use it... http://learn.arc.nasa.gov/worldwind/forums...p?showtopic=508 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimpshiznid Posted October 27, 2004 Author Share Posted October 27, 2004 I cant access that page, but, if the nasa guy's are impressed, he's got to be smart. 584815096[/snapback] Here... I'll quote what he has posted on that page. Currently serving "JPL Global Landsat Mosaic (Visible Bands - Panshapened)" from all packs in http://learn.arc.nasa.gov/worldwind/cache.htmlMap of avaliable areas: http://212.33.80.179/~hlds/worldwind/data/map.jpg To use it download http://nowak.xpam.de/WorldLayers.xml and put in "Configuration" dir. What this does, it allows you to connect to his server, which holds many of the cache files. It also adds new functionality to the program, adding a few different views... To allow Worldwind to see the new server, you have to empty your cache by going to the WorldWind program folder, then go to: Cache\Earth\High-Resolution Terrain Mapped Imagery\JPL Global Landsat Mosaic (Visible Bands - Panshaped) and delete all the folders from 0-10 in that folder. Then, right click on http://nowak.xpam.de/WorldLayers.xml, select save as, and save it. Then, go back to your WorldWind program folder, go into the Configuration folder, and then copy and paste the WorldLayers.xml file you just download, overwriting the last one... Now you can open WorldWind, and you should see a new button, and his server will update for you. Please note that if you are trying to zoom in too quickly, and you are hammering his server with requests, it will tell you it can't connect. So take it slow at first. BTW: Nasa had the server up for a day or 2 this week. But they only had a 100mbs connection, and it crashed rather quickly. They are in the works for getting a 1Gbs server... :omg: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudioDope Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 will this work on 512 ram, 466mhz ? p2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachman123 Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 His server down too? Because it's not working for me... Nasa should create a program so that everyone (who wanted to) could share the load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikey Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Don't forget this proggie is still under development! ... and free of course! ... these are only temporary work-arounds till the NASA servers are back online. There's going to be plenty of improvements the next release so stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moeburn Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I still haven't found a decent mirror. The file from the NASA site always results in a corrupt ZIP file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calidude Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I had to take this off of my computer because it hogs too much RAM (and I only have 256 MB of it right now :( ). It was fun while it lasted though. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimpshiznid Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 Just so everyone knows, the NASA servers are now up, and the program is completely functional. If you use the current version, or update to 1.2d, you can even view Mars data now... WOOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimpshiznid Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 Thanks! 585032358[/snapback] NP. Also, I just found out that the update gives access to the GLOBE Program Visualization Server, in the WMS Dialog box. This allows you to see current radar, rainfall images, everything, on your area.

yaawia Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hi i got world wind. I see alot about cache files. Is it possible to get all of them in one package or somthing to that effekt because i have atleast 200 gigs to spare and a 10 mb connection. Also is that enough space for all of them. And are there any possible patches or packages that may be needed. The current version i have is http://opensource.arc.nasa.gov/archives/worldwind-1_2.zip. Any help would be helpful.
