This is a small global weather and earthquake monitor i've been working on and off on for a while written in VB 2005, Everything is working except the earthquake portion, I have the program setup to download seismic data from the IRIS network, the problem i'm having is in putting the latitude and longitude coordinates onto the 3d globe. I've created a vertex array of the globe and assigned each vertex a latitude and longitude value loaded from a file called latlon.txt, I'm not so great at math so figuring out how to compare the 2 value sets to find out where the earthquake goes is the real problem. I'm really hoping someone here can fix what i can't, as I started this program last year and that's all that needs done. I'll post a link to the source of the project soon.
edit: source package here -
