build 3D geospatial applications. World Wind provides APIs for Java,
Android, and JavaScript, and includes a powerful set of capabilities for
visualizing and interacting with spatial data and imagery. In the first
part of this presentation I will discuss some the main features of
World Wind, as well as the World Wind team's development philosophy. The
second part of the evening will be an interactive workshop, in which we
will build a simple geo application using the Web World Wind JavaScript
API.</div></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5774" dir="ltr"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_7343"><br id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5775"></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_7344"><br id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5775"></div></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5776" dir="ltr">BIO:<br id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5777"></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_6590">Parker Abercrombie is a senior software engineer at NASA's Jet
Propulsion Laboratory, and is the project lead for OnSight, a mixed
reality tool that allows scientists and engineers to work virtually on
Mars. Parker is also the lead developer of the science targeting
software for the upcoming Mars 2020 rover mission. Prior to joining JPL,
Parker worked on geovisualization software for NASA's Ames Research
Center and the U.S. Department of Energy, including World Wind, winner
of the NASA Software of the Year Award in 2009. Parker holds an M.A. in
Geography from Boston University, and a B.S. in Creative Studies from
the University of California, Santa Barbara (which he swears is more
technical than it sounds).</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_6749"><br></div><div><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_6750">Lan<br></div></div></div> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5785"> </div> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5786"><span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1496384882556_5787"></span></div></div></body></html>
