# Overview

Earth Atlas 80K is a cinematic globe and country visualization project for Unreal Engine, designed for high-resolution Earth rendering, geographic visualization, animation, and cinematic output.

This documentation follows the typical Earth Atlas 80K workflow — from opening the project and configuring the scene to creating country visualizations, animation, and final rendering.

## Recommended Workflow

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Animate and Render

Animate Earth, camera, environment, and visualization parameters in Level Sequencer, then render the finished sequence through Movie Render Queue using the included Lit or Path Tracing presets.
