Revisión de Noticias: Iniciativa Google Earth de Beneficencia, Earth Pantalla Gigante, Pollmapr, Conferencias

• Iniciativa Google Earth de Beneficencia - El Martes 26 de Junio, estoy llendo a la Oficina de Google en Nueva York. Google envió invitaciones a la prensa hace dos días para anunciar un nuevo programa creado especialmente para las organizaciones de Beneficencia de todo el mundo. La Red de Tecnología de Beneficencia informó sobre la invitación recibida. Los únicos detalles que se conocen al momento son los oradores: John Hanke, Director de Google Earth; Jane Goodall, del Instituto Jane Goodall; Kathy Bushkin Calvin, de la Fundación Naciones Unidas; Edward Wilson, del Instituto "Earthwatch"; and Elliot Schrage, de Relaciones Públicas de Google.

• 

  La Tierra en Pantalla Gigante - Apple muestra Google Earth en una pared gigante de video usando 18 pantallas Apple de 30 pulgadas y alta resolución. Aparentemente una Mac Pro fué utilizada para cada dos pantallas. ¡Me hubiera gustado verlo por mí mismo! Fué presentado en la Conferencia Mundial de Desarrolladores Apple 2007. via OgleEarth.

• Pollmapr - Herramientas Geográficas Gratis informa sobre un nuevo sitio gratuito que te permite realizar encuestas. Lo interesante es que el sitio ofrece la posibilidad de registrar, mediante la IP del usuario, la ubicación de quien participa, mostrando ciudad/país del mismo. Pollmapr luego, provee un archivo KML para poder ver los resultados en Google Earth.

• Conferencias - Se aproximan las conferencias de Mundos/Globos Virtuales: Conferencia y Exposición de Mundos Virtuales de Otoño tendrá lugar en San Jose, California el 10 de Octubre de 2007. También, el próximo mes está Geoweb 2007 del 23 al 27 de Julio de 2007en Vancouver, British Columbia. El CTO de Google Earth, Michael Jones, será uno de los referentes en esta Conferencia. Esta, probablemente, sea mayormente del interés de la gente de Google Earth. Me gustaría ir pero esa semana estaré navegando por el Caribe!!!

Taipei, Modelos 3D para Google Earth

Ya que estamos en el tema de los modelos 3D, un lector del GEB de Taipei, Taiwan llamado Steven Ho, me ha enviado una colección de Modelos 3D que ha creado para Google Earth. Tiene un blog (en Chino) donde muestra un número interesante de proyectos que ha realizado. Se destaca la colección de Edificios 3D de Taipei (son edificios simples, sin textura, pero abarcan muchos de los edificios de Taipei).

Steven también creó el Modelo de una nueva atracción turística de Taipei - un sistema de Góndolas para pasajeros en las montañas cercanas a Taipei llamada la Góndola Maokong. No sólo modeló la Góndola Maokong , sino que también creó una animación que muestra su uso. Sin embargo, esta animación requiere de bastante memoria - no tienes que habilitar la opción 4D de todas maneras, sólo mira este video de YouTube:

Aquí hay algunos detalles del mismo:

La Góndola Maokong fué planificada y construída por el Gobierno de la Ciudad de Taipei. Recorre una distancia de 4.030 metros, con 4 estaciones donde los pasajeros pueden desembarcar y embarcar: la Estación del Zoológico de Taipei, la Estación Recinto del Zoológico, la Estación del Templo Zhinan y la Estación Maokong. Hay también dos estaciones donde las góndolas pueden cambiar de dirección. Son utilizadas para controlar el movimiento de las góndolas y no llevan pasajeros.

Las góndolas están hechas de aleación de aluminio y pueden llevar 8 personas. El sistema viaja a una velocidad de entre 3 y 5 metros por segundo y puede soportar un máximo de 144 góndolas al mismo tiempo, o sea, un total de 1.300 a 1990 pasajeros por hora en una sola dirección. El viaje más corto en góndola es de 17 minutos.

Google debería probablemente hablar con Steven Ho sobre sus edificios 3D e incluírlos en la capa de Edificios 3D de Google Earth. ¡Gran trabajo Steven!

3D Buildings Update for Google Earth - June

Google has pushed out an update to the "3D Buildings->Best of 3D Warehouse" layer. This means models which have been selected to deserve the new "Blue Ribbon" status are now part of the default "Best of" layer (see tips on how to submit your 3D model).

I had noticed there were a bunch of buildings being added to the 3D Warehouse for Christchurch, New Zealand a while back. The models were built by architects ZNO Christchurch (see their recent blog post). The ZNO guys had previously been using real architectural software and converting them over for viewing in GE over a year ago (before GE 4 came out). But, they now seem to be using SketchUp pretty enthusiastically. They say in their blog they will be adding more buildings every month. Right now it looks like several blocks in downtown are available.

Another huge improperly scaled building can be seen at these coordinates: "39.48, 26.90" (western Turkey). Make sure the 3D Buildings layer is turned on. You may have to zoom out to about 20 miles to see it as the building is 11 miles wide. I imagine this will be removed from the layer pretty quickly. A GEB reader e-mailed me about it yesterday, so I told Google about it.

There are cities all over the world getting 3D Buildings created by people using SketchUp. Check out cities like Chicago, Karachi, Rome, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Moscow, and more.

[UPDATE 1420 ET: Got a list of cities from Google which had significant new buildings: Kabul, Afganistan; Montreal, Canada; Dusseldorf and Frankfurt, Germany; Madrid and Barcelona, Spain.]

Pict'Earth - UAV Aerial Photography Solutions

Back at the beginning of the year, I wrote about a video someone posted showing a guy flying a remote controlled plane (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle or UAV) and used a digital camera to take aerial photos and show them in Google Earth. The guy who created it is David Riallant, and his company Pict'Earth is located in France. He has now expanded his operation and has a new office in the USA, which is being run by Jeffery Johnson and Stewart Long. They have a new web site called PictEarthUSA.com. The new company has a system available which uses a basic remote controlled plane, Pict'Earth software, and a Nokia N95 as both the camera system and wireless broadband communicator. They offer both live and professional aerial image processing services. Not ony that, but they have recruited the efforts of the well-known Google Earth innovator Valery Hrosunov in Perm, Russia to develop the software for the image processing and display in GE. Check out their gallery of example photos.
