Does anyone know of any LIVE satellite programs like Google Earth - but live?

even this programs by subscribe pls I need answer|||This just isn't practical and won't be possible anytime soon. To do this requires a network of satellites dedicated to covering the earth. Just to provide as much detail as the base layers World Wind loads first, the camera resolution on each one has to total about 100 megapixels. Perhaps the military has such a network, but it is certainly off-limits to anyone else. The images have to be received on the ground and processed. Then they all have to be combined where they overlap and corrected for the distortion caused by the earth's curvature. Finally after compressing the imagery from gigabytes down to several hundred megabytes, a server has to send it out to everyone. This requires an enormous amount of bandwidth for the server. Even if that weren't a problem, the internet connection for the majority of high-speed users is still too slow for more than about one update every hour.





But you can see near real-time imagery: Global Clouds, NRL Weather, MODIS are all 3 hours to less than a day old.|||the wii has live satellite...

|||yeah but they are mainly military satalites so we dont have acess to them|||Web live network cams can be fun just move them yourself


.|||NASA Worldwind is similar to Google Earth, some of the images are only half an hour old or so, but it's more used for tracking weather flows, and it doesn't go as low as Google Earth, i.e. you won't see your car parked outside your house, but you might just be able to make out your street.|||I wish!|||There are live sat feeds, but you would need to find your self


willing cracker!|||You can pay for upgraded Google Earth it is updated more often but it is not live.|||No that's only for the Governments use
