interessanter, Google Earth ähnlicher Ansatz von Skyline Globe 3D. Am markantesten ist das Feature Video on Terrain, das statt dem 3D-Objekt Videos über Objekten/Bereichen einblenden kann. Sprich: Ein Geschäft könnte eine Livecam installieren und dem User direkt über dem Geopunkt bewegte Bilder anzeigen. Schauts mal am besten selbst dieses Vorführvideo an: These maps have live video

Presseinfos (mehr konnte ich in der Kürze nicht in Erfahrung bringen, wo man die SW downloaden kann, ob es etwas kostet und wenn ja, wieviel:
