Earth&Sun Color is a color version of Earth&Sun.
It runs on color handhelds with Palm OS v3.5 and greater.
For monochrome handhelds use Earth&Sun available on this website.
The Earth&Sun program shows the Sun Illuminated area of the Earth with 1X, 2X and 4X maps of the earth.
It also displays:
- The latitude and longitude of an Earth location.
- The time zone at that location, based on only longitude not civil boundaries.
- The current time at that location based on the above time zone.
- The sunrise and sunset times, and day length at that location.
- Distance between two locations on the earth surface.
Earth&Sun can also be a real time clock on the handhelds which can run in their charging cradle.
It allows the Reference Information to be imported from the GeoDB geographic database, and it accepts 1/2 hour time offsets from Greenwich.
What's New in This Release:

Other Software by developer «David W. Bray»:
UTMConvert UTMConvert - UTMConvert application converts Earth latitude/longitude encoded positions into universal transverse mercator (UTM) encoded positions, and vice versa
GeoDB GeoDB is a database for storing Earth locations -- latitude/longitude/etc.
Store your favorite locations in GeoDB and it is a trivial task to import the information into Earth&Sun, GeoMagnetic Info, and Rise Set.
It also provides the computation of Daylight Time when alocation is imported
Convert Convert - Convert is a unit conversion calculator.
Convert is an application for Ewe enabled computers to convert values from one unit to another.
Convert has 13 categories of units. Each of which has a number of possible conversions
Earth&Sun for Pocket PC Earth&Sun for Pocket PC - The Earth&Sun an application for Ewe enabled computers. It shows the Sun Illuminated area of the Earth
Some will consider Earth&Sun to fall into the category of "fun and games".
We hope you find Earth&Sun useful and enjoy it.
· The latitude and longitude of an Earth location
Riseset for Pocket PC Riseset for Pocket PC - Riseset is an application for Ewe enabled computers to compute sighting information for the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Any user location and date may be specified.
· Rise, transit, set times.
· The altitude and azimuth angles at the current time, or at a user specified time
LocEdit LocEdit - LocEdit is an application for Ewe enabled computers to edit Location Data CSV files. These files store information about physical locations on Earth.
Location Data CSV files are used by most of the applications written in Ewe by LocEdit's author.
Location Data CSV files are simple text files which can be edited by any ASCII text editor
GeomagInfo The GeomagInfo is an application for Ewe enabled computers to compute the magnetic declination, inclination, and magnitude for any location on Earth.
Its main use is to give the current magnetic declination to correct a magnetic compass. This application is most useful for those hiking and traveling without topographic maps in unfamiliar territory
GeoDB Tools GeoDB Tools - GeoDB Data Tools are an adjunct to Palm OS GeoDB application.
The GeoDB Data Tools archive provides world wide location data and GeoDB databases, as well as PC tools to work with GeoDB and with GPS devices.
The provided databases include over 700 world wide locations in both text, CSV form, and 9 ready to install GeoDB databases
FormulaCalc FormulaCalc - FormulaCalc is a general purpose calculator which accepts algebraic formulas and computes their values.
The formulas of FormulaCalc:
* Use common algebraic expressions with the normal multiply before add rules.
* Can have up to 26 inputs from stored data.
* Can store results in up to 26 storage locations
RiseSet RiseSet - The RiseSet Program computes the rise, transit and set times for the Sun and the Moon.
Any date and user location may be specified.
RiseSet has good accuracy for visual sighting.
The actual sun times are within a few seconds and the moon times are within a minute
