Overview:

Using topography data from NASA, the Panoramascope computes the view that you would see from almost anywhere on Earth and displays it as a detailed line drawing. You select the viewpoint by searching for a name or by entering co-ordinates and can then pan and zoom the displayed view using multi-touch gestures. iPhone users can take a photo and line it up with the computed view. On the iPod touch this can be done with photos from the photo library. Names of mountain peaks and other locations can also be superimposed on the drawing by downloading additional layers. The Panoramascope's best views are in hilly or mountainous terrain, so it will be of most interest to hill walkers, skiers and others visiting upland areas.
