shadows, of course, but the image reflects different amounts of illumination on steep slopes.

A Closer Look at ArcGlobe and Adding Data to It
60. While you have been doing the preceding steps (presuming that you have been working straight
through the steps—which may not be the case), ArcGlobe has been running in the background,
spinning the Earth. Restore the ArcGlobe window or restart the program. Stop any spinning.
Zoom to Full Extent. Move the globe around, so you can see the United States. Zoom so that it
pretty much fills the window.
61. Using the same procedure as with ArcMap, add the following data sets, one at a time, to
ArcGlobe. 7 After each one, use Zoom To Layer. Plan to wait for the computations to take place.
(Display them as 3D vectors.) (Show layers at all distances.)

7 This is one place where you don't have to worry much about the warning regarding different coordinate systems, for
two reasons: (1) one of ArcGlobe's features is that it converts data on the fly to the globe's coordinate system, and (2)
with the large environment we are dealing with here, small problems in accuracy won't usually be relevant.
