Data used:
-
30 meters DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data
-
30 meters color data - satellite image
|
The whole surface is divided into parts covering areas 20 x 20 points.
|
Each part is modeled in VRML separately. Only lighting is common in the main file.
|
The main file is an "index" that indicates the parts of world that should be loaded.
|
While moving the viewpoint above the surface the areas that are no longer necessary disappear and new areas are loaded.
|
The rendering resolution of the an area depends on the distance from the user viewpoint.
