I've e'er wanted to ain an antique globe. As it doesn't await similar I'm going to realize this dream anytime shortly I decided to brand my ain virtual antique globe. You tin brand 1 too!
Here's how to brand a virtual WebGL antique globe:
Step 1. WebGL Earth
The WebGL globe library already has a dandy Globe example using an onetime map of the world. Cut & glue the root code in addition to you're done.
Step 2. Add Other Maps
The David Rumsey Map Collection has geo-referenced thousands of maps. You tin utilisation these geo-referenced maps inwards your ain online maps past times precisely linking to the map tile-set URL. So all y'all accept to produce is respect roughly maps in addition to add together them to your WebGL globe globe alongside the .addTo(earth) function.
Here's the lawsuit - The Antique WebGL Globe
Unfortunately the WebGL globe API doesn't seem to accept a removeLayer(earth) function. The lawsuit is that y'all terminate upward precisely adding to a greater extent than & to a greater extent than map layers to the globe in addition to it gets a chip buggy really quickly.
