Introduction

This add-on is meant to compliment the Paleomaps add-on by Withak. It is set up to download new version of itself, so that the information will remain up-to-date. The information is from the London Natural History Museum's Dino-Directory and the imagery is from the Cleveland Natural History Museum.

The add-on displays icons approximately where the dinosaurs lived, based on where we find their fossils. The different colors indicate their diet: red=carnivore, green=herbivore, blue=omnivore, and gray=unknown. By clicking on an icon the Dino-Directory's page on that dinosaur will open

Installation

  • Using the self installing exe -
    • Double click 'Dinosaurs.exe' and follow the on-screen prompts.
    • When the installer has completed you are ready to run World Wind.

Usage

  • Load World Wind then tick the Dinosaurs' entry in the Layer Manager.
