On this page you will a variety of movies related
to the Iditarod race. These movies were made using EarthSLOT, which
you can use to fly around on interactively over the same imagery
and terrain. The imagery here comes from TerraColor
and is a unique, hand-tailored, high-resolution mosaic of satellite
data that gives an excellent feel of what the snow free surface
looks like. The elevation data is mostly from USGS,
but Rainy Pass uses a high resolution elevation model from Intermap
Technologies, which really shows every nook and cranny of the
pass. Both TerraColor and Intermap support higher education with
their products, please visit their web sites to learn what else
they have to offer.
Media: If you would like to display these, please
send an email to matt.nolan@uaf.edu.
If you have ideas for other movies or formats, please let us know.
Distribution: These movies may be freely distributed
as long as the credit pages remain attached.
NOTE: New movies are added as we make them, so
check back often.
