Terrain Following






A wide range of applications require mapping
satellite photographs (2D texture) onto terrain elevation data (Geometry),
and navigating over the resulting scene in real-time.


SAGEM's Mission Planning Systems fully integrate the Terrain Following technique
for military aircraft to determine the optimal approach angle in combat situations.



This demonstration prototype was developed with the collaboration of
SAGEM, in France.

These programs have been compiled and tested
on the following High and Maximum Indigo² IMPACT systems
(and it is always preferable to run them on systems with 4 TRAMS):

              - IRIX 5.3 All Indigo² IMPACT with patch 1105
              - IRIX 6.2
They are also expected to compile and run on the
following systems, but have NOT BEEN TESTED:
              - Infinite Reality
              - Reality Engine (5.3 with OpenGL Extensions Patch 918 (successor to 154))

The binaries included on v6.1 of the Developer Toolbox were
generated on an IRIX 6.2 Indigo² IMPACT system.

In order to recompile you must install the GLUT 3.0 software, included on this v6.1 Toolbox, onto your own system. The inst images or tardist file can be found in
