Asset Overview

This globe depicts active and planned submarine cable systems. # Technical Created using data from the [Submarine Cable Map](https://github.com/telegeography/www.submarinecablemap.com) and [NASA Visible Earth](https://www.visibleearth.nasa.gov/). Visualization made with [ParaView](https://www.paraview.org/) and exported to glTF. Thanks to [phychai](https://phychai.wordpress.com/2013/08/01/paraview_vectorfield/) for the formula to convert the data into spherical coordinates. # Project This model is inspired by [Tyler Morgan-Wall](https://www.tylermw.com/)'s [popular tweet](https://twitter.com/tylermorganwall/status/1440669533157556227) from Fall 2021. # What next?
