Here is a real-time full color view of the Earth from the Himawari satellite, updated every half hour or so. This geostationary weather satellite is stationed over the longitude of Japan. The view is complete with orange sunglint off the ocean. You can click on the link to see the latest update.

We can look around for the full resolution real-time data archive that would be about 11000 pixels wide. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]

I figured out how to get full frame interpolated 121 megapixel Himawari time-lapse mapped to 3D to enable limited camera positioning.
I did it by slicing each full resolution frame into 9 8k slices, tweening them & stitching back to full frame. 134 source frames were sliced, tweened & stitched to 1600 121 megapixel frames adding up to 143GB It's nice to get this data into a volume. The following are initial test videos... 4k60 version on Youtube 4k60 version on Youtube ...and some stills. -------------------- |
