3D Globe Map
Interactive 3D World Map for TATA Communications
STC Associates asked me to produce yet another coverage map for TATA Communications! This time, since the data was pretty light and it included satellites, we thought doing it in 3D would add a bit of shinny. Truth be told, I am a 3D junky (obviously).
In comes Away3DLite, picked for its small footprint and performance. The location data is XML driven and uses actual geo-locations to place the PoPs and satellites around the earth.
I had ported to Away3D the original script, from Andy Zupko’s excellent tutorial, for a previous project. The scroll menu is based on this demo by Soulwire.
I modeled & texture the satellites and marker.. yea, these are some high class models
