It renders a virtual representation of the earth along with a large variety of data which is accurate to the minute. The globe can be easily rotated and magnified to give a distant or close up view of the earth from space. EarthBrowser has several interesting and useful sets of data available in the Datasets tab of the control window. Data includes weather, cloud formations, Doppler radar, tropical storms, earthquakes, space crafts and global forcasts.
