Patent number: 10922339Abstract: Portable globes may be provided for viewing regions of interest in a Geographical Information System (GIS). A method for providing a portable globe for a GIS may include determining one or more selected regions corresponding to a geographical region of a master globe. The method may further include organizing geospatial data from the master globe based on the selected region and creating the portable globe based on the geospatial data. The portable globe may be smaller in data size than the master globe. The method may include transmitting the portable globe to a local device that may render the selected region at a higher resolution than the remainder of the portable globe in the GIS. A system for providing a portable globe may include a selection module, a fusion module and a transmitter. A system for updating a portable globe may include a packet bundler and a globe cutter.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2020Date of Patent: February 16, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Manas Ranjan Jagadev, Eli Dylan Lorimer, Bret Peterson, Vijay Raman, Mark Wheeler
