Hi I am having a difficulty finding how to build texture files for VTP. I have both a DEM and Lansat data for a project area. Using an older build of VTBuilder...
... Marius, I haven't been following this discussion closely, but the gdal_translate utility can be used to translate ESRI BIL files to different resolutions ...
MICRODEM can do the reprojection from Lat/Long to UTM. It would prefer that you download the data as a Geotiff. Since USGS changed the format of the BIL, I...

Monty, You need to clip and convert your Landsat data to an image with the exact same extent as your full terrain. You will need either a .BMP or .JPG file. ...
Marius, Frank and Peter have pointed out that GDAL and MicroDEM can do the task of converting and cropping the BIL file. I'd like to add that VTBuilder will ...
Monty and Mike, One correction. Image Layers in VTBuilder aren't yet fully functional. Their current purpose is to load and display GeoTIFF files as reference...
Hi, does anyone know a free conversion program, which could read USGS DEM in and write it out as 16 heightfield surface like *.TGA. Have tried Wilbur and it...

Chan, I'll answer to the list, in case others sooner or later run into the same questions. 1. How to get procedural building heights from GIS. The importer...
Hi folks, I'm working up a proposal for some VTP related work, and I've hit a few snags with both elevation and imagery while putting together a demo. I...
The California DRGs use a screwey projection different from all other DRGs in the country. Some would say it's documented, but because it's an oddball I would...

Hi Dan, ... VTBuilder doesn't handle DRGs (yet). BExtractor does. I believe the documentation says this, i'll check them to make sure. ... I presume you...
I cleaned up Dan's Santa Barbara elevation data a bit - put the ocean at elevation 0, and filled in the undefined areas. The result, as a 4k*4k BT file ready...
Hi group, I installed the new version of VTP and all necessary dll's. Reopening my current project, I noticed that the texture of my 3ds-files is missing...

Well that's farily spectacular! Definitely a good starting point for me. I wasn't sure if the data was in feet either, but that's definitely scaled up. I...
Dan, The projection and georeferencing info can be held in tags within the geotiff, but these get wiped by Photoshop, etc. However, the gdal utilities can be...
Dan, If you convert your bitmap into a tif (or if it is one already) then there is a tool called GeoRef on my website that you can use to georeference it. ...
This may be a different problem, but I've now tried converting my DRGs & DOQQs to bitmaps and just loading them straight in Enviro, and I'm getting black...

Ben and list, Actually several side conversations, which I'll try to summarize and split up. 1) Error reporting 2) Internationalisation 3) 3D building...
The internationalisation thread got rolling when I suggested that error reporting be set up so as to - eventually - support multilingual error messages. I...

Ben, Where do I have to make the association between the point shapefile and the building model file (3DMAX , for example)? Enviro or VTBuilder? And how do I...
