구글어스 영상추가 해답 - 만주 지역 갱신(Where in the World is...(Answers))

하늘이푸른오늘 2009. 10. 25. 23:59
10월 22일자 구글 LatLong 블로그 소식입니다. 며칠전 구글어스에 영상이 추가되었다는 소식을 전해드렸는데, 오늘은 그때 나온 퀴즈에 대한 해답과 갱신지역 리스트입니다.

이번 영상 갱신에는 우리나라 지역은 전혀 변화가 없네요. 다만, 만주지역, 특히 백두산의 위성영상이 갱신되었다는 점이 특히 눈에 띄네요. 자세한 내용을 보시려면 이 KML을 실행시켜 보시면 됩니다.

흠... 아래는 이 KML을 구글맵(Google Maps)에서 실행시킨 뒤, 이를 삽입시켜본 모습입니다. 아래 지도에서 마우스를 드래그하면 직접 전세계를 확인하실 수 있습니다.
