Description

A primary difficulty in terrain rendering is displaying realistic terrains to the user at real-time frame rates. The brute force approach is usually too complex for real-time frame rates to be achieved. Several terrain-rendering techniques have been proposed that use Level of Detail (LOD) to generate a simplified representation of a terrain. The geometry clipmap is a recently proposed approach that utilises the potential of modern graphics hardware. It stores vertex data on the graphics card,...
