Greetings All! I'm just getting the time to do some real study on VPB and I had some questions about LOD and controlling it!
First of all, I'm going to reverence a tool that I know “Terra Vista” for an example. If you don't know about this tool, I understand and try to explain in more detail. One of the tricks you can do in Terra Vista is that you can limit the amount of LOD's you can use in a given area over others. This allows you to build terrain that has higher level of detail in some areas (where it matters ) and allows other areas to max out at a lower level of detail. This in the end would make the terrain take up less space than of all of the terrain was at a high level of detail. I managed to get a group of satellite data at 1 meter resolution and it works fine, but it's taking up over 50 gigs of Hard disk space. I like to cut it back a bit so I can at lease maybe get it on a double layer DVD, if not , a blue ray disk. I figure that if I can cut back on the resolution in areas that I don’t need to be at 1 meter resolution, I can cut the size in whole of the terrain to something more manageable.
