Title: Fractals in Google Earth Post by: bib on April 20, 2010, 02:20:12 PM Hi
Not sure if this had been posted before. Playing with Google Earth is an easy way to discover the beauty of fractals in nature... http://fractalfoundation.org/2009/02/fractals-on-the-earth/ http://www.kmzlinks.com/show.asp?id=92&offset=&group http://www.realworldmath.org/Real_World_Math/Fractal_Coastline.html Why not launch a contest of the best fractal picture from Google Earth? ;) Title: Re: Fractals in Google Earth Post by: Power 8 on April 20, 2010, 03:42:56 PM I agree the earth is full of fractals!
this is one from the sahara desert (http://lariphotos.free.fr/googleearth%20art/desert.jpg) and these two I put a couple a while ago on the forum in this fractals and nature thread: http://www.fractalforums.com/philosophy/fractals-and-nature/msg15491/#msg15491 (http://lariphotos.free.fr/googleearth%20art/rivertree01.jpg) (http://lariphotos.free.fr/googleearth%20art/earthforest04b.jpg) Title: Re: Fractals in Google Earth Post by: Nahee_Enterprises on April 22, 2010, 07:41:50 AM Yes, there are so many wonderful and unique images of this planet. And the photos shot from space can be quite fascinating indeed. One could spend several days (if not weeks) just viewing such graphics. Appreciate the links and images!!! :) |
