Janna,

Both VPB and osgEarth use GDAL under the hood to read heightfield data. So
either: use one of the GDAL-supported formats (
http://www.gdal.org/formats_list.html) that matches your data type, or
transform your data into one of those formats. Then either VPB or osgEarth
will be able to read it.

Regarding VPB or osgEarth, this explains the difference in a nutshell:
