Artist Clement Valla collects distorted images that are found in Google Earth. First, the images seemed to him the flaws in the program, but it turned out that it is predictable anomalies for display method, which is used by Google Earth. Look At Me explains why some pictures are such, and publishes a collection of the best images collected and Valla.
Three-dimensional images in Google Earth are created with the help of technology, which was developed in the 1970‑ies. In the simulation used the term "texture map". It is a flat image that is applied to the surface of the solid model — just like the label on the bottle. The texture map is not formally have the depth and just repeating the object's surface: it is rather the scans that we are looking at than the pictures through which we look. Google uses its patented technology Universal Texture, specially designed for the display of the surface of the Earth. This is not exactly a texture in the usual sense: they are closer to the photos, the third dimension which completes our brain. So sometimes in the service of the inevitable anomalies caused by the mismatch indicators of the depth of from three-dimensional models of the Earth's surface and textures. Them and collects Valla.
