Miami now on Virtual Earth 3D 2.0

Our Virtual Earth 3D Integration Team Blog has the scoop on Miami released our new 3D technology which is completely automated in a data center completely powered by wind. The area modeled using our new 3D technology covers the entire downtown Miami area with over 46000 buildings and hundreds of thousands of trees. I’m betting a bunch of them are palm trees but that’s just a guess.

Check it out. It’s simply beautiful.

UPDATE: Chris Pendleton tells me that we also have Seattle, WA and Vienna Austria up now as well along with a TON of new ortho and oblique imagery. 69.2TB worth. Holy smokes.
