Land Lines: Trace an Infinite Path Around the Planet Using Maps
Land Lines, a new Chrome Experiment exploiting the satellite image data collated by Google Maps, allows anyone?cartographic aficionado or otherwise?to marvel at the contours of the world through gestures. Intelligently designed to detect dominant visual lines from a dataset of thousands of images, cut down from over 50,000 by using a combination of OpenCV Structured Forests and ImageJ?s Ridge Detection, users can simply "draw" or "drag" on a mobile browser or on a desktop to "create an infinite line of connected rivers, highways and coastlines."
