Inverted Oceans

{{$t('general.by')}}

What would the Earth look like if every elevation was inverted? If oceans were mountains and vice versa? Bathymetric (ocean depth) information from NASA is recolored here using topographic information and satellite imagery. Colors are based on a distance-based weighted average of similar elevations (other algorithms are available if the source code is modified). <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kylemcdonald/5292001581/";>High resolution render on Flickr.</a> <a href="http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/BlueMarble/BlueMarble_monthlies.php";>Source material from NASA.</a>
