With reference to the thread about whole earth DEMs:
Someone complained about the upcoming shuttle DEM would be integer only, and not floating point... I just thought for a second about the size of a dataset for the whole globe in 90m resolution with floating point...
What are the records in the GIS business for the size of datasets? What is the biggest vector layer around (a theme in VMAP lvl 1?). Archives of imagery is of course massive, but apart from that?
