This is a demonstration of various data visualizations that we have made using a combination of [Matlab|http://www.mathworks.com/], the free tools in the [OpenEarth toolbox|Tools], and the [Google Earth|http://earth.google.com] ^TM^ mapping service. To make your own, just sign up and check out the [tutorials|Matlab Tutorials] for the googleplot toolbox.
