random.Sahara()

I made a little website that shows 4 random images from the Google satellite images of the Sahara. Wrote a little javascript that generates a random location in the Sahara and shows it in a Google maps embedded thingy. You can generate new images by reloading or pressing the button on the bottom of the page.If I could design an art museum, I would create a server that generates random satellite images from different sections of the earth. Comparing countries, cities, continents and landscapes by showing random images from bounded area on earth. This all projected with high resolution beamers and shown on large LCD screens. So many cool things you can do with satellite images/aerial-images, high resolution beamers and large screens.

  2. It should work in firefox.

    Server is down at the moment "Due to a broken network cable somewhere outside our premises our servers cannot be reached. We expect to be online again soon.". Same reason why our blog is not showing correctly (if it's not in you cache).

    Good idea for a museum. A museum dedicated to remote sensing.
