Description

This collection consists of computer software and data contributed by participants in the 1989 and 1991 meetings of the Special Interest Group on CD-ROM Applications and Technology (SIGCAT).

There are images of Mount McKinley, Washington, DC, and a variety of Earth locations as well as images of several of the planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Mars).
