- Finally (this was my big headache from the beginning) we can get the latitude and longitude position of the mouse in the canvas.
- Improved globe rotation. You can rotate (respect the imaginaries global X,Y,Z axis) the globe in any amount of degrees. Also, I have added tilt, like WWJ ;)
- Added support for so called icons. Icons are images that serves as markers: pins like GE, balloons like GMaps, ... any image you want like WWJ.
- Added picking selection support. You can associate "handlers" to the objects and control its size, movement, etc when they are selected (depending on the handler).
The Balloon project blog is a place to talk about my personal virtual globe project so called "Balloon Project". Initially it was born using my own developed 3D API allowing to load, render and animate GIS information, georeference images, import lat/lon shapefiles and load layers from any WMS server. The future project will be based (I hope it) in WWJ. WWJ is still in an early alpha stage, because it, I try to contribute with some features I learn or implement working in my own 3D API.
