DIGITAL ELEVATION MAPS • FALL 2010 • CS480 • Michael Carroll • Asma Mannan • Sagar Mutha
CONSTRUCTION • Platform: C++ / OpenGL and GLEW / Windoze • SVN on google code
REQUIREMENTS • Compelling Data • USGS NED • Global Mapper (Converter) • Multitexturing • Movement
PLATFORM & PARTITION • Michael – NED Parser & Converter, Geometry Generation • Asma – Multitexturing • Sagar – Camera Movement
DIFFICULTY • Proper Visual Scaling • Each square degree sized differently • Proper Walking • Downsampling Data Reasonably • Texture mapping
EXTENSIONS • More textures, normal generation • Textures vary with normals, not just elevation • Dynamic LOD / Geometry + Textures • Lat / Long user input • Harsher Shading and Sunlight Simulation/ Date Time
