[comp.graphics] Moon Maps and Wavefront Texture Format

gdewan@mrcnext.cso.uiuc.edu (Geoffrey DeWan) (06/09/91)

Lets try this again, I don't think this got out the first time.  I am doing
a project for a local planetarium involving simulations with the Sun, Earth and
Moon.  I have a Wavefront texture map (and bump map) for the Earth.  However
I am going to be doing this in GL on an SGI Iris machine.  Does a anyone know
where I can find out the internal formats for the texture and bump maps of
these files?

Also, I need a texture and bump map (or any digitized map) for the entire moon.
Anyone know where I can get one of these (along with an internal description)?
Anyone know who I might be able to contact about such?

Please send replies to: gdewan@mrcnext.cso.uiuc.edu (I may not see a posting
in this newsgroup in time before it expires).

A few day ago, I posted a note requesting moon maps.  I also indicated that I
had an Earth map.  I have gotton several replies by people saying they would
like the Earth map.  The rights to the moon stuff reside with a group at the
National Center for Supercomputing Applications here at the University of
Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  If you would like the map, the person I got
permission to use the maps from was:
