We live in an era abundant of data and data science thrives,. While there is sufficient meta-data to reconstruct a representation of the real world, with digital maps being a prime example, data as abstract entities are effectively invisible to the everyday person. In this talk, we how we use meta-data to build a virtual meta-earth: -introduce data sources we employ as reality's blueprint -visualization technologies to bring these data to life -Utilization of scientific models to simuate day light cycles, polution levels -integration with virtual reality, as a prelude to the virtual worlds described in science fictions
