Satellite images of the earth are currently commercially available in resolutions from 14.25m (Landsat 7) up to 0.61m (QuickBird). Visualizing large terrains or whole planets at t...
Three-dimensional maps are fundamental tools for presenting, exploring, and manipulating geo data. This paper describes multiresolution concepts for 3D maps and their texture-base...
A stereo vision based terrain traversability estimation method for offroad mobile robots is presented. The method models surrounding terrain using either sloped planes or a digital...
We describe an efficient technique for out-of-core management and interactive rendering of planet sized textured terrain surfaces. The technique, called P-Batched Dynamic Adaptiv...
