Welcome to the testTerrain application. The following key commands and comand line parametrs listed in this readme file will help get you started using the dtTerrain API. /************************************** * camera controls **************************************/ [w] moves the camera forward [a] moves the camera to the left [s] moves the camera backwards [d] moves the camera to the right [f] Super fly speed! [g] Ground clamp the camera /************************************** * Level of detail **************************************/ [+] Increase the terrain threshold [-] Decrease the terrain threshold [Bracket Left] Increase Detail [Bracket right] Decrease Detail [spacebar] Wireframe view /************************************** * Statistics **************************************/ [return] displays scene statistics /************************************** * The following are command line paramaters * that can be used with the testTerrain application. **************************************/ -h --help -c -r --dted --geo --geodrape --enable-vegetation /************************************** Command Line Overview **************************************/ -h and --help will print out the command line operation proper usage -c Sets the cache path used to store processed terrain and terrain tile data. This is important for consequent runs of the terrain to 're-use' existing processed data. -r This defines the resource path used for loading DTED, model, or other resource data. For the testTerrain application you need to specify the resource path to the dted data. --dted It is required that you specify the DTED level, the latitude and the longitude of your terrain. This is required to properly load, without it your application will exit quietly. --geo This defines the path and filename to the geospecific data used for the Vegetation Decorator. Without this specified the GDAL will be unable to parse land classification data for vegetation to be properly placed on the terrain. --geodrape This specifies the image path for the terrain drape decorator. The terrain drape decorator essentially paints the terrain. --enable-vegetation This should be set to either 'true' or 'false' depending on whether there is sufficient data and models to process the placement of vegetation. Example Usage testTerrain -c "C:/terrain/cache" -r "C:/terrain/resources" --dted 0 39 -121 --geo "C:/terrain/geotiff/CA_VEG_1.tif --geodrape "C:/terrain/geodrape" --enable-vegetation "true" Make sure you change the paths appropriately. If your paths are correct the above will effectively execute the testTerrain application with a DTED level 0 data located at 30, -121 with a draped image and vegetation.
