Science based and artist friendly, WCS is packed with professional features. Experience true spherical terrain; realistic water with waves, automatic breakers, beaches and tide support; amazing 3D evolving clouds; complex multi-level ecosystems, natural looking foliage and rock texturing, plus extensive support of readily available terrain data formats.

By itself or with other 3D programs, WCS delivers incredible power to animators, scientists, architects, educators, students and anyone interested in exploring and simulating the earth and other planets.
