Rendering Large-Scale Terrain Models and Positioning Objects in Relation to 3D Terrain

Computer generated 3D graphics have been commonplace in computing since the early 1990's. Get Rendering Large-Scale Terrain Models and Positioning Objects in Relation to 3D Terrain computer books for free.
However, most 3D scenes have focused on relatively small areas such as rooms or buildings. Rendering large scale landscapes based on 3D geometry generally did not occur because the scenes generated tended to use up too much system memory and overburden 3D graphics cards with too many polygons. However, there are applications where the terrain is critical and needs to be rendered properly such as cartography and military simulation. This thesis is focused on methods of rendering terrain for such applications. The data used to build terrain geometry typically comes from elevation postings taken from surveys of the terrain. This thesis does not focus on Check Rendering Large-Scale Terrain Models and Positioning Objects in Relation to 3D Terrain our best computer books for 2013.
