EarthData available as free download.

James Bursa (part of the Netsurf web browser team) has announced that his software 'EarthData' is now available for free download from his website.

EarthData is a geographical database which contains a variety of data on every country of the world accessible via a simple menu-based interface.
It can also present and manipulate data in a variety of ways.

Some features include;-

  • Many categories of up-to-date data for each country.
  • Graphing of data within countries.
  • Overall data for the world.
  • Location maps showing the position of each country.
  • Draw files of each country's national flag.
  • Each category of data can be disabled to simplify the menus.
  • Selection of countries based on a simple filter, for example 'Area is greater than 1,000,000kmĀ²'.
EarthData can now be downloaded from James Bursas website

<grumble> Doesn't work on Aemulor. :(

Are the transparent menus for real or are they a pretty Photodesk effect?

No, the transparent menus are just in the screenshot, so that I could fit more in.

I mean't to ask you about those.
Thought they were some sort of transparency module or something.
