Foil 25 Terrain rendering in VRML

From Study of Use of Databases for VRML and Application to GIS Research Seminar -- 9 february 1996. by Krzysztof Walczak * See also color IMAGE

Creation of VRML files
The creation of VRML files is automatic - a special translator has been developed.
The elevation data is transformed to a set of points.
The color data defines colors of particular points.
The points are linked to obtain surfaces.
For each area two VRML files are created: with higher and lower resolution for use with LOD nodes.
