Basically, osgEarth is really good at doing fancy layering of data sources. VPB is a little trickier, but can do most of the same things (for elevation and raster data anyway). I was thinking it might be easier to use osgEarth to turn your multiple layers of GeoTIFF images into a single elevation

Also, to add to that, osgdem relies heavily on GDAL to ingest raster data. GDAL has several tricks for combining multiple files or directories and referencing them as one dataset. For example: https://gdal.org/gdal_vrttut.html I don't recall ever using that technique with VPB, but in theory it co
