WorldWind数据

现有导航产品的地图情况：
ozi：
   是用栅格地图，容易转换使用。地图的分辨率为50m，大约1:10w到1:25w。

MapKings数据非常少，只有一些大城市，如北京、上海、广州、深圳、东莞、香港、台北等。

   05年12月份的2700版，只有大城市地图，城市之间的地图可能只有1:400w。从06年2月份更新了pc版软件未更新地图以来，PC版没有再更新过。不过PPC版更新很快，听说数据有很大改进，跟道道通有得一拼。

    数据是最全的，但我还没有用过。只有ppc版软件。

    5.0 地图还比较全，但比较老。

SRTM: Shuttle Radar Topography Mission：利用往返雷达获取地形（高程）数据的任务
主页：http://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/index.html

The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) obtained elevation data on a near-global scale to generate the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of Earth. SRTM consisted of a specially modified radar system that flew onboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour during an 11-day mission in February of 2000.
   2000年2月份，SRTM利用一个经过特别修改过的雷达系统，经过11天的工作，在近地轨道上获取地球几乎最全面的高程数字地形数据。
   SRTM是NASA和NGA的一个联合项目。
   SRTM已经发布了覆盖全球80%的区域的90m分辨率DEM（3 Arc Second）和覆盖主要是美国的30m分辨率DEM（1 Arc Second）数据，很多地方可以下载到。

NASA/NGA MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING(file:///E:/Download/www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/mou.html)
   It is intended that SRTM data be unclassified; however raw radar data, full-resolution terrain height data (ie. Level-2 data sets) or strip DEM with 30-meter spatial resolution for areas outside the United States will be under the control of the Department of Defense. Release of these data will be in accordance with guidelines mutually developed by NGA and NASA.
  Terrain height data greater than or equal to three seconds of arc latitude and longitude (ie. Level-1 data sets) generated from the SRTM will be released and distributed without restrictions.
  NASA may distribute full-resolution image data obtained from the SRTM, which will be archived by NASA.
  Raw radar data, terrain height data of 1 second of arc latitude and longitude( ie. Level-2 data sets), and strip DEMs with 30-meter spatial resolution over the United States may be released and distributed without restrictions.

SRTM Data Processing Methodology(http://srtm.csi.cgiar.org/SRTMdataProcessingMethodology.asp)
   The first release of Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data was provided in 1-degree digital elevation model (DEM) tiles from the USGS ftp server (ftp://e0srp01u.ecs.nasa.gov/srtm/) in 2003. The data was released continent by continent, as and when the data was processed by NASA and the USGS. For the United States, data was made available at 1-arc second resolution (approximately 30m at the equator), but for the rest of the world the 1-arc second product is degraded to 3-arc seconds (approximately 90m at the equator). SRTM elevation data has now been released for the entire terrestrial surface, and a “Finished” product has now been released (ftp://e0srp01u.ecs.nasa.gov/srtm/version2/SRTM3/).

Global Land Cover Facility (GLCF)

The Global Land Cover Facility (GLCF) provides earth science data and products to help everyone to better understand global environmental systems. In particular, the GLCF develops and distributes remotely sensed satellite data and products that explain land cover from the local to global scales.
Primary data and products available at the GLCF are free to anyone via FTP. Online datasets may be accessed electronically through the Earth Science Data Interface (ESDI).

The Earth Science Data Interface is the GLCF's web application for searching, browsing, and downloading data from our online holdings

Seamless Data Distribution System (SDDS) (http://seamless.usgs.gov) enables a user to view and download many geospatial data layers, such as National Elevation Dataset, National Land Cover Dataset, High Resolution Orthoimagery, and many more. This tutorial is designed to guide a user through the download process.

worldwind使用的Landsat数据：
i-cubed

i-cubed highest resolutionAn Isilon cluster was used by i3 to optimally process the raw Landsat7 data using sophisticated i3 color-balancing algorithms. Isilon systems donated to NASA were again used to rapidly build the i3 donated color-balanced imagery into World Wind's tiling scheme. Much thanks goes to i3 and Isilon for their generosity of donating this imagery into the public domain.

Visible
The maximum resolution is 15 m per pixel.
Uses bands 3, 2, 1

NLT (从GLCF下载后处理）

NLT Visible highest resolutionNASA Learning Technologies has processed the Landsat 7 data to create their own imagery. Pan-sharpening the images was planned, however other priorities mean that 30 meters will be the maximum resolution for the forseeable future. See NLT Landsat Processing Techniques for information on how the data was processed, and NLT Data Issues for known issues.

Visible
The maximum resolution is 30 m per pixel.
Uses bands 3, 2, 1
Pseudo
The maximum resolution is 30 m per pixel.

Geocover
 
GeoCover 2000 highest resolutionGeocover is a product of MDA Federal (formerly EarthSat), and is pseudo color Landsat imagery. The 1990 data was acquired with Landsat 5, and the 2000 data with Landsat 7's ETM+.

2000
The maximum resolution is 15 m per pixel.
Uses bands 7, 4, 2
1990
