Hi-res Earth cloud maps?

I'm using a 4k surface map and night map for Earth. They make the default 1k cloud map look somewhat grainy by comparison. The only other cloud map is the 32k VT by Harald Schmidt, and my graphics card can't handle that. Does a 4k cloud map exist?

I am still using my 2k cloudmap that I did 7 years ago using all sorts of tricks for good appearance. It has some strong points in its favor, and many people used it over the years...

Have a try from my old TexFoundry site:
