They use small airplane models with cameras and GPS and transmit the pictures in real time into Google Earth. I can imagine this can follow a runner that also has GPS...

Very impressive work. The catching features overhead view is pretty cool! I had a little trouble following the action at high speed though. A few small suggestions... - In CF view, float a big orange marker over the control... so we can see where he's going. Also, slow it down a little. - Do more anotation along the way, marking decision points, navigation points (attack points, catching features...) To make it really helpful, include short pauses to give the viewer a little more time to understand. - I like how you flashed a highlight on features in Head-Cam view, to show where they are on the Map-Inset. You should do this with CF view too. - I wasn't able to follow the Map-Inset in conjunction with the CF view (it covered too little area, and moved too fast) It was useful when you used the highlighter to point out features though. - I did like the Inset O-map in conjunction with head cam. It might help to keep the inset oriented. Great work, great proof of method! If you can incorperate the competiton between multiple runners and craft a supsenseful story it will be even better.
