Hi
I'm talking about setting this bounds callbacks on geometry(drawable) leaves.

Is that true? Setting an invalid bounding sphere will indeed suppress node-level culling, but I believe the near/far calculation is done at the Drawable level. See CullVisitor::apply(Geode&).The usual approach for terrain rendering is to subdivide your globe into tiles. Then OSG can cull out the tiles that are not in the view, including far-off tiles or back-facing tiles (by means of the ClusterCullingCallback). That will bring the far clip plane closer and give you the z-buffer resolution you need in order to visualize surface features.In addition, you can decrease the Camera's near/far ratio; this will give you a little more near clip space if you still need it.,

You can set ComputeBoundingBoxCallback on a geometry to specify whatever bounds you want. In your case to ignore earth geometry bound you can set its bound to uninitialized bounding box, and it will not make any difference to near\far calculations. Note that this thing completely disable view frustum culling on a geometry! In order to get it working you should write your cull callback and do check vs actual bounds there, if you need it.
Code looks like:
class UseInitialBoundsCallback : public osg::Drawable::ComputeBoundingBoxCallback
{
public:
osg::BoundingBox computeBound (const osg::Drawable & drawable)
{
osg::BoundingBox brand_new_uninitialized_bbox;
return brand_new_uninitialized_bbox;
}
};
geometry->setComputeBoundingBoxCallback(new UseInitialBoundsCallback);
Cheers, Sergey.
