Functions
- Modeling
- 3D modeling. 3D relief shaded maps can be interactively rotated and sized.
Both orthographic and perspective views are supported.
- Textures. These can be draped over height data. Many different image file formats are supported.
- Coloring. Maps can be colored on the basis of height, slope or variability.
Solid and two types of gradient fill can be used between any arbitrarily selected heights and colors.
-
- Rendering
- Render modes. Relief shaded maps can be created using either OpenGL(tm) or Bitmap render modes.
- Exaggeration. Height data can be exaggerated to enhance 2D and 3D effects.
- Lighting. The light position and angle can be set. Light colors can be set.
- Shading intensity. Smooth shading, flat shading and no shading options are available.
- Simulation: None
- Animation: None
