NASA creates animated SoCal flyover

ScienceDude Gary Robbins points us to the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s latest project — the “most detailed topographic map ever made of Earth.” The map includes a computer-animated flyover of the Greater Los Angeles basin. “This bird’s eye view begins offshore, west of Seal Beach and Long Beach, then angles across the Palos Verdes Peninsula before going inland and taking viewers on a big semi-circle that ends by looking out toward the coast of Orange and Los Angeles counties.” Check out Gary’s story and handy links here.
