Robert,
What fun would it be if people didn't abuse your code :) I agree that
in general VPB does a great job with default settings, I've used it
several times to generate 100 GB databases over large areas.
In this case though I'm trying to generate terrain at the resolution of
the source data for a very small area in as few tiles as possible. I
realize this is not the intended purpose, but I was trying to see if
anyone had done this successfully.
It doesn't seem to be a display issue, becase I can generate the model
with default options and load all the highest resolution tiles directly
into osgviewer and it runs fine, about 4 million vertices.
Going down to 512x512 causes the same problem.
I'll keep digging if no one has run into this before.

Hi Martins,
Jikes, some days I regret making osgdem quite so flexible...
A 1024x1204 grid weights in at million vertices, and near two million
triangles. Normally graphics cards should be able to handle this,
but... it would seem that your's doesn't, perhaps it just doesn't have
the memory to handle such a big geometry. The other chance might be
that numerical precision is becoming an issue, although I'd be surprised
by this one.
I really would very strongly recommend that you stick to defaults unless
you really know what you are doing, the defaults are chosen for a good
performance and scalability.

Hello,
I'm using the --tile-image-size and --tile-terrain-size
options to tweak the generation of the dataset. The image option
works great, but when I try to use the terrain option I get the
results attached.
If I zoom in, it seems like a lot of overlapping geometry
like the y-coordinate is not being updated properly, but I dug
through the code and could see any obvious causes.
I'm using the following command-line:
osgdem --tile-image-size 4096 --tile-terrain-size 1024 -t
../input_ims/ -d ../input_terrain/ -e 1065536 1043840 8192 8192 -o
output/vpb_out.ive
I even added --no-terrain-simplification to see if that was the
problem, but no help there.
I'm not using the --TERRAIN option, since I need to
post-process the geometry using an existing tool.
Thanks
Martins
