This program rocks!
This is the best visualization tool I've ever seen for GIS data - combining incredible flexibility in its ability to obtain data, now with 3D rendering that outperforms every commercial solution available.
A few notes:
- as the number of dems files inreases, response decreases dramatically, (system mem goes up big time.) Â The coolest part of this app is the way it caches locally, allowing rapid viewing cumulatively. Â I'm stacking up dems data, but as i do, things are starting to really crawl. - some way to load/unload selectively?
-active display area in 3d rendered - would be nice to manually reduce/enlarge displayed area, (i.e. - my 128Mb graphics card cooks - i can hande ALOT, but my buddy's integrated 32Mb video is struggling...)
- "would be nice" some kind of hard stop to rotation at the perceived horizon, (not very valuable to view topo data from "underground"
