The Generation and Use of Parameterized Terrain in Land Combat Simulation
Abstract
The complexity of land combat analysis, especially in high resolution simulation models, is enhanced
by elaborate terrain models depicting a limited
geographical area. Terrain is, therefore, treated
as a given factor in the analysis and all results
are conditioned on that ·particular location. This
study presents and evaluates a methodology for par- ameterizing terrain for use in land combat analysis...

Rendering large-scale terrain models and positioning objects in relation to 3D terrain
Hittner, Brian Edward (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2003-12);Computer generated 3D graphics have been commonplace in computing since the early 1990's. However, most 3D scenes have focused on relatively small areas such as rooms or buildings. Rendering large scale landscapes based ...
