		<title>Terrain &#8211; iPad app</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve re-written my 10 year old Terrain-Engine as an iPad app. It uses OpenGL Shaders and was lots of fun to write.

The cheap GeoIP database we use to convert IP address to geographical coordinates only gives us country-codes. ISO 3166-1 defines the encoding of &#8221;countries, dependent territories, and special areas of geographical interest&#8221; into codes, and the 2-character encoding subset is defined in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.
