Hi, i have just completed to make 3D Terrains for the whole Italy in ive format with osgdem. The data base includes 73 ive files 100km x 100km each (and each one is the merge (using osgconv) of 400 ive files 5km x 5km each), and the total size is about 400G
I have no problem to view a single ive file under Windows XP, with good fps (when zooming... it's slow when zoomout), but of course osgviewer fails to load ALL the 73 ive files (osgconv fails too, when trying to create a single big file) osgviewer crash where allocated phisical ram raise about 2.5G: i reckon it is not a virtual memory problem, but an addressable RAM question under Windows. My questions are: . can i expect to be succesfull to load ALL the 73 files under Linux? . osg/vpb can effectively manage such big databases with a Desktop PC? . could i estimate the HW resources (RAM, CPU, Video...) to manage decently such terrain? Thank you!
