Fileserver for NASA high res blue marble files (21600)

Post #1by Guckytos » 11.09.2004, 17:02

Hi i wrote to NASA to access their high res blue marble pictures and got this response from them.
I mean those big 150+ MB files! :D

Hello!

The Visible Earth has found a new home for the Blue Marble imagery.
Below are the new directions for accessing these images, and we
hope to have the Visible Earth back online as soon as possible!

For all non-private uses, the terms of use are as follows:
1) The imagery is free of licensing fees
2) NASA requires that they be provided a credit as the owners of the
imagery

Beyond that, there are two requests by the Visible Earth team:
A) We request that you provide a credit for the Visible Earth,
as the location where you obtained the imagery, with a URL
if possible (http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/)
B) We further request that you provide a credit to the Earth
Observatory team that developed the imagery, again with
a URL if permitting (http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/)

Again, (A) and (B) are completely optional.

Your request for the Blue Marble Imagery has been processed. You may now
download the file (and others) from:
ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/

The files available at that location are as follows:
11661 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/la ... _21600.tif
11662 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/la ... o_east.tif
11663 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/la ... o_west.tif
11668 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/ro ... ssless.mov
11669 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/ro ... ssless.mov

or a compressed version can be found as:
11668 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/ro ... ess.mov.gz
11669 ftp://veftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/bluemarble/ro ... ess.mov.gz

Thank you for your interest!

Warning: These images are very large and will utilize a large amount of
system resources to view.

So if anyone needs them take a look there. And the servers are quite fast too.
