RENDERING THE 3D REALISTIC TERRAIN SCENE USING THE REMOTE SENSING IMAGES

The principle of rendering the 3D realistic terrain scene using the remote sensing images and the algorithm of texture mapping is introduced. The main procedure includes: measuring the coordinates of the characteristic points (targets) in the remote sensing images; determining the relation between remote sensing image and corresponding terrain model; grey resampling; displaying the realistic terrain scene. The results of the test show that the 3D realistic terrain scene rendered contains substantial information and has a good quality and reality.
