Detailed Description

VSG extension Level-of-detail management for multi-resolution terrains.

The SoGeoLOD node allows applications to build massive tiled, multi-resolution terrain models where the viewer progressively loads higher resolution detail as you fly into the terrain.

The SoGeoLOD node provides a terrain-specialized form of the LOD node. It is a grouping node that specifies two different levels of detail for an object using a tree structure, where 0 to 4 children can be specified, and also efficiently manages the loading and unloading of these levels of detail. The level of detail is switched depending upon whether the user is closer or further than range meters from the geospatial coordinate center. The center field should be specified as described in 25.2.4 Specifying geospatial coordinates. The geoSystem field is used to define the spatial reference frame and is described in 25.2.3 Specifying a spatial reference frame. When the user is outside the specified range, only the geometry for rootUrl or rootNode are displayed. When the viewer enters the specified range, this geometry is replaced with the contents of the four children files defined by child1Url through child4Url. The four children files are loaded into memory only when the user is within the specified range. Similarly, these are unloaded from memory when the user leaves this range. Figure below illustrates this process. The child URLs shall be arranged in the same order as in the figure; i.e., child1Url represents the bottom-left quadtree child. It is valid to specify less than four child URLs; in which case, the SoGeoLOD should switch to the children nodes when all of the specified URLs have been loaded. This latter feature can support tree structures other than quadtrees, such as binary trees.

The rootUrl and rootNode fields provide two different ways to specify the geometry of the root tile. You may use one or the other. The rootNode field lets you include the geometry for the root tile directly within the file; whereas the rootUrl field lets you specify a URL for a file that contains the geometry. The result of specifying a value for both of these fields is undefined.

Fourth child url : bottom-right quadtree child.

Definition at line 136 of file SoGeoLOD.h.

◆ geoSystem

SoMFString SoGeoLOD::geoSystem

Defines the spatial reference frame.


Valid values are:

  • GC: Earth-fixed Geocentric with respect to the WGS84 ellipsoid.
  • GD: Geodetic spatial reference frame.
    An optional second string may be used to specify the ellipsoid using one of the ellipsoid codes that are defined in X3D. If no ellipsoid is specified, then "WE" is assumed (the WGS84 ellipsoid).
  • UTM: Universal Transverse Mercator
    One further required argument must be supplied for UTM in order to specify the zone number (1..60). This is given in the form "Zn", where n is the zone number. An optional argument of "S" may be supplied in order to specify that the coordinates are in the southern hemisphere (otherwise, northern hemisphere will be assumed).

◆ range

SoSFFloat SoGeoLOD::range

World-space distance to use as switching criteria.

Definition at line 146 of file SoGeoLOD.h.

◆ rootUrl

SoSFString SoGeoLOD::rootUrl

Url of the file that contains the root tile geometry.
