ossimPlanet and Worldwind are probably both good potential solutions
for you.
ossimPlanet is C++ and cross platform and maintains an emphasis on
double precision accuracy, photogrammetry, and remote sensing. It is
designed to use geoids and elevation trees (DTED or SRTM). It
leverages the geospatial processing of the OSSIM library and the 3D
visualization of OpenSceneGraph. It also supports OGC WMS and has a
plugin for WorldWind server data. One of the more useful
capabilities is that you can take an arbitrary geotiff (or any of the
formats supported by OSSIM/GDAL) and drop it on the planet. It will
be be reprojected on to the globe. It is under very active
development and the GUI is not yet as polished as WW.
Can someone explain the comment on Panoramio conflicting with OSSIM?

I didn't know about it! Now I recognise the logo as being the one
that conflicted with Panoramio. Or rather, Panoramio conflicted with
OSSIM.
At the time, I didn't need a virtual world... so I ignored everything
that wasn't what I needed! As you can guess, I spend an awful lot of
time backtracking to things I should know. :)
Thanks for the reference. I'm downloading OSSIMPlanet now.

Hi,
I am not going to comment on the merits of OSSIMPlanet versus
Worldwind that is up to you to evaluate, but since you asked for a
cross platform worldwind have a look here
http://forum.worldwindcentral.com/showthread.php?t=8514&page=3
and a teaser here

The old code is in subversion and works ok; I think we are all waiting
for the announcement.
Actually if you are from NASA .... can you add me to the beta
testers list!!
thanks,
Norman
