The goal of VTP is to foster the creation of tools for easily constructing
any part of the real world in interactive, 3D digital form.
This goal will require a synergetic convergence of the fields of CAD,
GIS, visual simulation, surveying and remote sensing. VTP gathers
information and tracks progress in areas such as procedural scene construction,
feature extraction, and rendering algorithms. VTP writes and supports
a set of software tools, including an interactive runtime environment (VTP
Enviro). The tools and their source code are
freely shared to help accelerate
the adoption and development of the necessary technologies.
To learn more about VTP and the field of virtual terrain, use the subject
headings below. You can also download
the VTP distribution.
