Google Earth London Eye Model

By Google Earth 20-30 5 Comments

Originally modelled in 3DMax we have slightly revamped the London Eye for Google Earth. There are a few known issues but it illustrates how even complex landmarks can be imported.

You can download the kmz file to fly into the model in Google Earth here (1.4Mb)

Other models including St Pauls and a view of London in Google Earth can be viewed in previous posts.

As ever any comments are welcome..

3D London Tube – Streaming a Movie via Flash

By 3D London Tube Map, London Underground 2 Comments

The majority of our movies have been encoded in Divx which although useful for compression does mean that people need the correct codec installed. As a test we have put online a movie encoded into Flash so the majority of users will be able to view it. The filesize is also compact, down from 23Mb to 2.2Mb which should be streamed from our server.

The movie itself features a fly through of the iconic tube map of London.

Any comments would be welcome…

Construction of the Navy Pier, Chicago, begun in 1914 under the direction of architect Charles Sumner Frost. The pier was originally designed a shipping and recreational facility, it is now however a theme park and shopping mall.

The Pier is also however a great place to view both the cities skyline and Lake Michigan. The Lake at 118 miles wide and 307 miles long is one of the five great lakes of America.
