Interactive Mapping on Virtual Terrain Models
We present an interactive, real-time mapping system for use with digital elevation models and remotely sensed multispectral imagery, which aids geoscientists in the creation and interpretation of geologic/neotectonic maps at length scales of 10m to 1000 km. Our system provides a terrain visualization of the surface of the Earth or other terrestrial planets by displaying a virtual terrain model ...
متن کاملReal-time Terrain Mapping
We present an interactive, real-time mapping system for digital elevation maps (DEMs), which allows Earth scientists to map and therefore understand the deformation of the continental crust at length scales of 10m to 1000 km. Our system visualizes the surface of the Earth as a 3D surface generated from a DEM, with a color texture generated from a registered multispectral image and vector-based ...
متن کاملThe digital revolution in geologic mapping
Geologic field data collection, analysis, and map compilation are undergoing a revolution in methods, largely precipitated by global positioning system (GPS) and geographic information system (GIS) equipped mobile computers paired with virtual globe visualizations. Modern, ruggedized personal digital assistants (PDAs) and tablet PCs can record a wide spectrum of geologic data and facilitate ite...
متن کاملThe New World of 3D Geologic Mapping
Digital geologic mapping is now a fully mature technology that dramatically improves field efficiency and problem solving capabilities. Basic digital mapping is just the tip of the iceberg, however, in regard to new and approaching capabilities with true 3D mapping. The key advance is the ability to easily construct high-resolution, photorealistic terrain models as a base surface for 3D mapping...
متن کاملGeologic mapping of Vesta
We report on a preliminary global geologic map of Vesta, based on data from the Dawn spacecraft’s HighAltitude Mapping Orbit (HAMO) and informed by Low-Altitude Mapping Orbit (LAMO) data. This map is part of an iterative mapping effort; the geologic map has been refined with each improvement in resolution. Vesta has a heavily-cratered surface, with large craters evident in numerous locations. T...
