For some larger datasets I’ve seen work done that loads heightmap data into the HDF5 format and uses the capabilities of that format to access portions of the height map as needed instead of loading the whole height map into memory.

vary nice job man. What kind of GPU do you use ?

This is amazing! Would you tell us a bit more about the backgrounds? Is this a continuation of your Bachelor thesis? Are you a master student now and this is the topic of your master thesis? Would be interested ;)

The smooth transition between levels is truly something else 👌

Excellent work Kurt!

Implement it for Blender 3D

Amazing - thx for sharing the code...

clean

Kurt maybe you could join CIG and help improve LOD pop-in in Star Engine. That would be sweet.

Wow

Awesome showcase. I noticed the interpolation of terrain mesh data between LOD levels. This is presumably not a novelty of this work? It didn't get mentioned. The quality and smoothness and absence of artefacts is outstanding. This is how the current "map viewers" should look & feel like.

Incredible stuff. The transition between LODs is incredible. This will redefine terrain generation.

I am half-way through your brilliant thesis. I'm implementing 3D terrain for a commercial Win32 weather graphics application and already decided on the Strugar 2010 CDLOD method which yours seems a perfect extension of. Once I wrap my head around your genius Chunked Clipmap concept I very well may choose this strategy. I am in charge of every aspect from dataset assimilation to hosting and rendering engine dev. Brilliant work! I'm kicking myself for wasting hours reading through the dense literature when Strugar 2010 and Kühnert 2022 were all I needed.

Is this Clasen and Hege 2006?

Hi, ich überlege ob man Marching Cubes LOD programmieren kann

This is fantastic!

Cool project!

Oh! very cool! I'm working on voxel planets but my rendering is still crap. I do have chunking, LOD and collision working however.

very nice

Can you center the LOD circles on the look-at point instead of on the camera? It would utilize the high LODs better.

At that height/distance it just looks like Google earth

Seems like an simplified version of nanite that could be used in any sort of game engine

do you have a release date for the thesis? really great stuff!

This looks awesome. There is a lot of detail and the transitions are very smooth. Excellent work.

Meanwhile MS Flight Sim would probably run at 3 fps on a mac

looks interesting - are you going to pub your code - i am about to start some work and looking for a good starting point - in stead of re-inventing what you have (if i ever could), i would then focus on the real work utilising these viewers

Very impressive! The Terrain looks unbelievably realistic with that real world data. And not only that, but the performance is amazing as well (for the hardware it was tested on at least). Keep the good work up, this truly could enhance the rust game dev market.

great work

Do you merge the vertices or triangles somehow, or do you apply a transperency in the rendering pass which blends the overlying faces depending on the distance of the point in worldspace to the camera? Looks like it might be the later one, but it is a really nice technique!

Now implement this in minecraft and make the game run at 999999 fps with rtx

can't wait for this guy to make earth 2

Es fehlt noch der Enderdragon xD

now make it shoot laser beams! 👍

beans

That's so smooth I didn't even notice that it was there, amazing work.

Very nice! Now make Smooth Level of Detail!

Any hopes for a follow up with more details regarding the implementation? Or at least some more insights :D

looks good

Pretty dope

I think music is not earrape enough

Nice demo, next time turn up the background music volume. Because I could hardly hear it.
