Open Source Alternative to Google Earth

ossimPlanet is a rapidly evolving project for accurate, high performance, 3D Geo-spatial visualization. It basically is a cross platform, open source software virtual earth. It automatically intersects with DTED and/or SRTM elevation trees for topography and handles a wide range of commercial and government file formats natively.

It is built on top of OSSIM and OpenSceneGraph capabilities. OSSIM provides advanced geo-spatial image processing for remote
sensing, photogrammetry, and Geographic Information Systems and backed by
an active open source software development community.
