[X3D-Public] Smithsonian X 3D

[Charles P. Lamb]

I've just noticed that the Smithsonian Institution has launched a new 
initiative for digitizing and accessing their collections which they are 
calling "Smitsonian X 3D".  http://3d.si.edu/  They even appear to have 
developed viewer software running on top of WebGL. In my brief search I 
haven't found anything about their data format. I wonder if they considered 
using X3D or were even aware of it?

Thanks,
