« on: August 02, 2018, 01:39:00 PM »
@Tumeni I have watched Globebusters on youtube which intrigued me and lead me do some more research and online investigation.
@pj1 Thank you for the insight that you provided into what might explain the video feed appearing to falsely curve the landscape. It was throwing me off a little b/c this feed the ocean appears naturally flat http://www.wildwoodsnj.com/wildwood-webcam.cfm.
@ICanScienceThat Thank you for the detailed explanation gonna look up the math. Guess its similar to measuring the height of something using its shadow. I just recently downloaded gimp (like photoshop) but free. Wondering if I can do the same in that program will have to research it a little bit but would a nice feature especially since the program is free.
Technology was intended to simply but it at times it appears complicates everything...reminds me of woman who use filters and a pound of makeup but look completely different in the morning.
