A new version of Earth Atlas is now available (
earthatlas.info). Earth Atlas demonstrates how a Google Earth-like user interface can be created in the web browser. This is achieved by combining the
Google Earth API and the
Ext JS library. Earth Atlas has no server-side dependencies, - the data layers are provided by loading various KML files.

The main changes since the
initial release:
- The layers available in the Google Earth Plug-in (borders, roads, buildings and terrain) can be switched on and off.
- Various options can be set (status bar, grid, overview map, scale legend, atmosphere and mouse navigation)
- The KML structure (list view) is displayed in the left panel when external files are referenced (see example).
