Nasa World Wind 1.3.2 - Satellitenkarten der Erde

World Wind erlaubt es dem Heimanwender aus der Sicht eines Satelliten auf einen Ort seiner Wahl auf unserem Planeten heranzuzoomen. Das Programm verwendet dazu Karten der Landsat-Satelliten und Daten von Radar Topographie Missionen des Space Shuttles. Dadurch kann man die Oberfläche der Erde in 3D erkunden, ganz so als wäre man tatsächlich dort. Heute wurde nun die Version 1.3.2 veröffentlicht, die offenbar hauptsächlich der Fehlerbehebung dient. So wurde also eine ganze Reihe mehr oder weniger grosser Probleme beseitigt.

Changelog:

You can now toggle the opacity setting on image layers, in the property window. Layer properties windows added.
WorldWind.config is no longer used. Its settings are now stored in WorldWind.xml (local settings folder).
Download tiles in single thread (back out multithreaded downloading due to performance problems).
Use download queue. Improve download performance.
Images are converted to DDS by default (same as 1.3.1.1).
New security warning dialog on plugin load.

Fix plugins could load multiple times.
