The other side of the world

I’ve been messing around with my new htc evo 3d. I’m currently calling my current project Hollow World. It shows a map of the Earth projected onto the inside of a sphere. Pointing the phone at a particular location shows a direct view of that part of the Earth. This is the view straight down from Austin TX.

It’s kinda neat to be able to point at a spot on the floor and see what part of the world is under there. It’s also giving me a new perspective on the continents and the way everything fits together that regular maps and globes never have.

My plans include adding internal structures of the Earth like the core and mantle, along with representations of earthquake epicenters. More to share later.
