[osg-users] [vpb] Roads as Shapefiles in VPB?

2014-12-18 Thread umesh ramesh
Hi All, I have road geometry (3D) that I might be able to convert to SHP file using shapelib library. If I load the shapefile for the road, shall I expect the terrain in VPB to be modified to accompany the road on top? My Aim: Wherever the road is present, the terrain must be flattened (go

Umesh, I think maybe Torben with the osgVisual project might have done something like this. I have done something similar but it is not open source. On Dec 18, 2014 9:50 AM, Robert Osfield robert.osfi...@gmail.com wrote: HI Umesh, On 18 December 2014 at 16:50, umesh ramesh
