As Colin Middleton points out, that filtering will not be enough. I am willing to help on implementing the polyhedron based projection. I know of a few papers and references, including and adaptation of the ROAM algorithm to the cube projection. But since I am a newbie as osg (and vpb) developer I just need some directions and links.
