Thanks Robert, that makes sense. There are still issues when using view dependent mode though. My initial thought was to grid up the geometry to be projected and then apply cluster culling to each cell, so that it would only consider projecting Visible geometry. However the cluster-culling doesn't

Hi! I am learning about the VirtualPlanetBuilder and osgGIS, both are necessary for the Geography Infomation system, I want to know how to use them together, When I use the osggis_viewer application, I cannot find the right way to display the osgGis models and VPB models together, my data

MingWei, It sounds like what you are trying to do it to drape the country polygon geometry onto a VPB globe. I assume you are using geocentric whole-earth models. Usually you can drape the polygon geometry to the terrain using an osgSim::OverlayNode. Here is a screenshot showing the technique in
