Hyderabad, Oct 5: The satellite based 3D mapping
application from Indian Satellite Research
Organization (ISRO) Bhuvan will enable users to
take satellite data more closely compared to Google
Earth. The registered users will be able to browse and
download satellite data through the ISRO's National
Remote Sensing Centre's Open Earth Observation
Data Archive situated at different cities of India. For free Technology videos Bhuvan has advanced features than the Google
Earth as it allow users to zoom far closer than the
aerial view from a chopper. The google earth shows details up to 200 metres of
distance and Wikimapia shows up to 50 metres. But
Bhuvan will show images up to 10 metres, which
means a user can view details up to a three floor
high building. Moreover, google earth only works
on a downloadable client while Bhuvan works within the browser of the user. At present users can download elevation data of
CartoDEM-1arc second and Resourcesat-1: AWiFS
data (56m) of the Indian region and soon users will
be able to access additional data when Bhuvan will
be equipped with more modern technology. The satellite data of Indian cities and terrain can be
accessed by users from the link provided at
www.bhuvan.nrsc.gov.in or http://bhuvan-
noeda.nrsc.gov.in. OneIndia News
