I believe a spherical display will be very useful for GLAST (or other astronomical) data, both for science visualization as well as E&PO purposes. This GLAST lunch will be a demonstration of the "Magic Planet" system. If you have some sample data and can send it to me or directly to Global Imagination ahead of time, they can probably display it during the demo. I did this with some Data Challenge photon maps some time ago -- representing the photons with circles, the size of which depicted photon energy, but use your imagination in the use of the (color) display. The best input format is in the form of a rectangular image (jpg etc.) where the axis are longitude and latitude (or right ascension and declination) over the whole sphere. The point of contact at Global Imagination is Rebecca Salari: rebecca@globalimagination.com Below is a blurb from the company and the URL for their web site. Jeff Scargle Jeffrey.D.Scargle@nasa.gov Global Imagination makes the Magic Planet digital video globe - the digital display with a sphere-shaped screen. We also supply software, content and services that enable you to present global information and promotional media in the most compelling and interactive way possible.
