Abstract:
A method for creating a large-scale synthetic environment simulation which can be used in real-time. The method enables real-time viewing, control and interaction of automatically generated, abstract feature models and terrain surface models having multiple levels of detail, while providing correlated multi-sensor viewing and interaction of objects.
