Marathon Tour Taipei City


<press above image to enter web page>

The Annual Taipei Marathon is going to take off on the 9th of December. During the creation of Marathon GE Tour, I found quite a few 3D building models on Google Earth along the route in Taipei City. In comparing with other Google Earth’s 3D cities, it’s not as good as it should be. However, it’s still worth of viewing under the lead of Taipei 101. Therefore, I would like to introduce my exhibition of Taipei Marathon by flying over 3D buildings; to let viewer to experience the fun of “Marathon Tour Taipei City”. Hopefully, it will encourage to those whom interested in building Google Model; to work together; to build a 3D Virtual Taipei City!

The 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition will be held from November 6th, 2010 to April 25th, 2011. This is the first time the event will be held in Taiwan. Taipei is the seventh city in Asia to host such a gardening expo, and this is a chance for Taiwan to show the world its commitment to outstanding gardening and the achievements it has made in the biotechnology sector.

For the upcoming exhibition, the entire area becomes very different, especially looking down from the air. Polin Chi, a professional aerial photographer, took some pictures from a helicopter between the gap of flies of airplane from Songshan Airport. (exhibition is just located below the Taipei Songshan Airport aircraft movements, and the movements are quite frequently).I use eight photos to display in Google Earth, and by my previous designed PhotoOverlay player, you can discover the beauty of the TAIPEI INT’L FLORA EXPO.

I have heard of the fame of Venice but never had the chance to really know the so called magical city. Itʼs hard to imagine what a water city looks like.

By collecting information from the web, I build a virtual tour by using Google Earth. Now, follow me to a journey to this city of northeast Italy on islets within a lagoon in the Gulf of Venice, a wide inlet of the northern Adriatic Sea.

Yanmingshan Google Earth Flight Tour


<press above image to enter web page>

Chipolin, One of Taiwan’s leading aerial photographer, produced the “Kenting flight” video last year. That pushed me to create “Kenting Google Earth Flight Tour“. In particular this soundtrack is impressive, so this time I once again base on this soundtrack to create “Yanmingshan Google Earth Flight Tour”.

Like the movie scripts, I have to create several clips by myself. It is a challenge for me, but the results are always sweet. Sharing with you!
