A Dynamic Method for Generating Multi-Resolution TIN Models
It is essential to generate multi-resolution Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN) models dynamically and efficiently in three-dimensional (3D) visualization, virtual reality, and geographic information systems (GIS), because the data that needs to be processed is multiple in scale and large in volume. This paper proposes a new method, which extends the edge collapse and vertex split algorithms,...
متن کاملAlgorithms for Triangulated Terrains
Digital elevation models can represent many types of geographic data. One of the common digital elevation models is the triangulated irregular network (also called TIN, or polyhedral terrain, or triangulated terrain). We discuss ways to represent a TIN in a data structure, and give some of the basic algorithms that work on TINs. These include retrieving contour lines, computing perspective view...
متن کاملMulti-resolution analysis as a tool for integrating wind and vegetation modeling over complex terrains
The paper presents the main directions of a forthcoming research project, aiming to connect wind, terrain and vegetation modelling. The approach is cross-disciplinary and consists of coupling Large Eddy Simulation techniques, 3D digital terrain representations, landscape models and vegetation patterns. In order to provide descriptions of the surface properties at the relevant scales, it is envi...
متن کاملA Multi-Resolution Approach for Simplification of an Integrated Network and Terrain Model
We investigate how to create an integrated and consistent model of terrain and network data, and define a geometric simplification method that uses an underlying triangulated irregular network (TIN) representation to maintain the topological relationships of the embedded network. The method is used to create a consistent multiresolution data structure. An edge collapse strategy is described tha...
متن کاملThe influence of the grid resolution on the accuracy of the digital terrain model used in seabed modeling
Modern digital terrain models (DTM) are widely used in the exploration of water areas. The models are often based on bathymetric data from a multibeam echosounder. DTM creators should properly select model parameters, firstly the grid resolution. High grid resolution enables creating very accurate models, however, they require high computing power and the data gathered in the grid occupy much m...
