Terrain Visualization for the Portable All-Source Analysis Work Station

Abstract

This report for the Terrain Visualization program was written to document significant program design elements. It reflects the successful achievement of the principal objective of the program - the implementation of sophisticated visualization capabilities using a low to medium performance computing platform. By requiring that this platform be the same as that used in the Digital Topographic Support System (DTSS), this program also advanced the potential use of terrain visualization technology in terrain analysis.
