Re: [osg-users] Using VPB to generate Earth Model

Hi Michael,

The --geocentric option is required if you want to generate a
ellipsoid whole earth model.  Also if you have png files you'll need
to assign the coordinate system for them either via a .prj file
infront of the image/dem entry or one of the other osgdem coordinate
system options.  Use osgdem --hep to list them all.

  which I execute:

  osgdem --bluemarble-west -t ../land_shallow_topo_west.tif
  --bluemarble-east -t ../land_shallow_topo_east.tif--geocentric -l 12 -o
  earth.ive

  Should this not create a sphere with the png file textured to it?  I am
  just going by the instructions on the webpage I got the command.  Any
  tips appreciated.
