Real-Time Day and Night on Earth with Clouds
|

Heres another real-time image overlay day and night with clouds. The resolution doesn't look good though.
Cloud weather data is provided by SSEC: UW-Madison
Snapshot of the image overlay transparency.

Add a second layer with real (every 3 hour) clouds to get the effect.
Thanks to Radeon.

Does anybody have time zones as lines or polygons that could be overlaid as well?

Ok, First things first.
This is an excellent idea, and as people have said would be good to have included with GE as standard.
BUT!
First issue is with the DAY side of the overlay. With the overlay active the Day side casts a green FOG over the earth, even at a low transparency the images appear fogged and low quality.
SUGGESTION: Is it possible to make the DAY side of the overlay completely transparent (in the actual overlay data), so as not to affect the GE images at all. Obviously it is expected of the night side that the image will be affected but not of the day side!
Suggestion 2: Is it possible to integrate an image of the Earth at night with street/city lighting etc (i do believe these overlays exist), that would reveal itself as the night side rotates around the globe?
OR
Using multiple layers to in effect alter the transparency of the night time lighting layer as the globe rotates to create the same effect?

Awesome to have. now, all we need is to get the lights put in on the dark side.... as many have already stated. I would do it, but I still have a looooong way to go to learn how to make decent overlays, especially ones that use real-time data.

This would be useful if it was just the transparent shadow layer without the land masses included.
|
|
|
|
Use this instead of mine
|

I recommend everyone to use danescombe's Dynamic Data Layers . It also include the real-time sunlight (day and night effect).
Thanks to danescombe
