GlobeViewer is a high resolution 3D terrestrial globe with topography and surface maps. This app allows a high quality view of the surface of our blue planet. It is divided into two areas: the rotatable, global view as an interactive globe and a high-resolution 3D map display of the earth's topography. - Interactive 3D globe with surface, underwater and topography map - High-resolution 3D topography map set of the entire earth's surface - divided into 22,912 individual tiles. You can load 110 different regions on the interactive globe, which then present the many individual tiles in a meaningful way and load them automatically. The app initially only contains the textures for the globe in low resolution. All required downloads are loaded automatically from our server. A total of approx. 33 GB of data is available. The data remains in the cache on your device for offline use, but can be deleted at any time in the main menu. Furthermore, all events recorded by the GDACS, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, etc. are entered on the globe. The 3D topography map is based on the elevation data from NASA's Terra probe, which recorded 83° of the northern and southern hemisphere between 2000 and 2013 - resulting in the ASTER3-DEM. With version 0.10.0 the map is enriched with approx. 7.5 million place names from geonames.org. This means that all the towns, mountains, lakes, deserts and many other geographical features entered there are drawn on the map. Use the tutorial in the app to familiarize yourself quickly or read the manual to find out which functions are in this app. As the app is still under development, some features are subject to change. We hope you enjoy using the GlobeViewer!
Some patience required, but not disappointing
Have the Pro version of Earth. Have NoAds versions of Moon & Mars now. Still finding layers & options difficult to use. Beginning to understand them a bit better by comparison. Have no complaints about the higher res map detail. Tiles seems the most promising feature. Just don’t expect to drop in and be an instant expert. Experimentation seems the best cure. Patience recommended. Not bad value!
How many days it take to download 8k textures?
Update: It doesn’t work. It doesn’t download. Neither 4k nor 8k. My Internet is fine. —— It’s been hours and the 8k texture still has not downloaded!

Agreed. Disappointing.
Downloaded. Did tutorial. Still find tiles & layers hard to work with. Maybe it’s the memory problem cited in reply to other reviews. Still doesn’t make app better. It needs to be more user friendly. Those pop up white boxes are better than menus? Why are there unremovable boxes for app ads in the paid professional version? The most applicable description…disappointing. Save your money.
Cool app you have here

Great app
this is a good app because its really simpol and you can use it offline
Disapppointing.
Wanting to see the described detailed map I bought the largest download. Now I wish I hadn’t. The ocean area could show some detail as opposed to the smooth, plastic-looking, plain areas. I wish the globe lighting was actual to the present Earth’s lighting now - it isn’t. The sun and moon rotate the globe quickly and constantly unless you turn it off freezing them on on location on the globe. There is no way to turn the entire globe light at want time. The desired view and all the setting don’t save. I have to reset them every time I open the app. While the ground details aren’t too bad, for the amount of money I wish I could zoom in more. If more work and planning goes into this globe app are done, I’d be more than happy to adjust my review and rating. But for now, if you’re considering purchasing this app, save your money.
