VRML Synthesis
Synthesis of VRML representation can be divided into two separate parts:
  • generation of terrain shape
  • generation of object description
Why terrain shape description is treated in a special way ?
  • very specialized and optimized VRML object
  • constant - user does not edit the terrain data
  • very big in volume - special mechanisms assure efficient storage and fast retrieval
  • highly parametrized VRML synthesis
