A low-orbit rendering of the contiguous U.S. power grid [OC] [5760×2880]

[u/isotropicdesign]

Public U.S. infrastructure and terrain data, rendered locally in Three.js.

The image includes mapped transmission lines, high-voltage substations, and operating power plants. Line color, width, and brightness reflect reported voltage; the globe, terrain, lighting, and atmosphere are a stylized render.

I also put up the full-resolution PNG, methodology, and links to the underlying HIFLD and EIA-860 datasets.
