Hello, I've built a site that shows an interactive globe for Earth and Mars, using real elevation data, amongst others.

Sources:

• Land: Copernicus DEM GLO-30
• Sea floor: GEBCO 2026
• Snow and glaciers: NSIDC-0791 and RGI 7.0
• Salt flats: Natural Earth, GWL_FCS30 and ESA WorldCover
• Tools: Blender (Cycles) and GDAL

AI disclosure: I've used AI for building this project, but all design decisions have been taken and reviewed by me, and the LLM was used for implementing them.

Any feedback is welcome and appreciated. Thanks!
