...The library provides a robust mathematical framework for spherical geometry, allowing developers to work with polygons, points, and regions on the Earth’s surface using consistent and precise algorithms. Unlike traditional 2D geometry libraries, S2 ensures accuracy over large scales by modeling the globe directly, avoiding distortions caused by map projections. The project includes core C++ support, optional Python bindings, and integrations with Bazel and CMake for flexible builds. It relies on Abseil, OpenSSL, and googletest, and is tested across major platforms.

Biosphere3D targets interactive landscape rendering based on a virtual globe. It supports DEM, satellite and aerial images, 3D models (Collada), 3D plant models, and Shapefiles. Biosphere3D was initially developed by the landscape visualization group of the Zuse Institute Berlin by Malte Clasen and is now developed further by Lenné3D GmbH. For more information about the used concepts have a look at the thesis of Malte Clasen: Towards Interactive Landscape Visualization Doctoral Thesis published 2011 via Technische Universität Berlin https://doi.org/10.14279/depositonce-3005

GPlates is a plate-tectonics program. Manipulate reconstructions of geological and paleo-geographic features through geological time. Interactively visualize vector, raster and volume data. PyGPlates is the GPlates Python library. Get fine-grained access to GPlates functionality in your Python scripts.

An extension to the desktop globe marble, providing the following additional modules: pixel maps, statistics module, 3D view

...NOTE: The project has been moved to GitHub: https://github.com/nuald/glSatellite-Demo The old one stays here just for the historical reasons. The 3D features present: - OpenGL ES 2; - rotating, multi-touch zooming and moving the globe; - stars on a fixed background; - each satellite is represented by a beam with a unique color; - identifying the corresponding satellite if a beam has been tapped (based on color picking method). Additionally to 3D features presented the application is: - using NDK with C++11 features compiled by LLVM clang; - mixing Java views with OpenGL views (Java is used for settings activity, information and ads panels); - using Android custom message queue to send asynchronous messages from Java to JNI

Geodysseus is a cross platform OpenGL interactive map projection and navigation program. The user clicks on a map or 3D globe to create geodetic traverses. The geodesic can then be approximated with any number of loxodrome legs. Tracks may then be re-projected onto different map projections. The aim is to make a multi-purpose navigational tool for Land, Sea and Air. At present, the program is in early development and should not be considered suitable for navigation.

Earth3D is a program to display the earth as a 3D globe (including heightfields) in real-time. One can zoom until cities become visible. It uses huge datasets that are loaded on demand over the internet. It is possible to embed dynamic data into the view
