Duke University Graduate Student Gil Bohrer has created a virtual forest to study how forest canopies interact with the atmosphere. Using the 3-D rendering technology in the Duke Immersive Virtual Environment, Bohrer can display a square kilometer forest within the ten-foot cube DiVE chamber. He says visualizing data in this way helps him see patterns and communicate his research to colleagues. Learn more at http://vis.duke.edu.

You get more resolution and ability to interpret data by using the data instead of pictures. The pictures are a good idea, though.I stood in this thing! It's pretty cool.
