# Capitol Zoom

Capital Zoom is a seamless, cloudless, zoom-in starting from a global view zooming down to the nation's Capitol. It is composed entirely of real earth-observing satellite data. Included are IKONOS 1 meter data, Landsat7 15/30 meter data, Terra/MODIS 250 meter data, and Terra/MODIS 8 kilometer data. The visualization first zooms in seamlessly, then zooms out showing where the different data set layers reside.This vizualization was created using Maya for motion control, Renderman for rendering, IDL for pre-processing of the data, Imagine for image registration, and Photoshop for color martching.
