TruFlite
Features
TruFliteTM for Windows is one of the most
powerful 3D landscape rendering systems available on the market. One of
its most distinctive advantages compared with its competitors are TruFlite's amazing capabilities to deal with very complex surface grids.
You are able to render
millions of gouraud-shaded texture-mapped polygons on a standard PC.
- Windows program originally
designed for this platform
- Specialized Windows 3.x and
Windows 95/NT versions available
- Runs on PCs
- 3D renderer capable of rendering
millions of polygons
- Up to 200 million polygons is
not uncommon, whereas in fact there is no upper limit
- 24 bit resolution in elevation,
which is 65536 times as precise than TruFlite's few competitors
- With the 16 bit version you can
handle files up to 16 MB
- With the 32 bit version you are
only restricted by your Windows system; for tourism office 3D maps
we use 20 to 100 MB texture and elevation files covering e. g.
Joshua Tree N. M. at 1 arc second resolution or Salzburg, Austria,
with a 10 meter Landsat texture.
- Comprehensive context sensitive
help system
- Intuitive, easy-to-use control
desk
- Renders multiple sceneries
simultanelously
- Utilizes Gouraud shading
- Antialiasing/color interpolation
can be parameterized
- Light effects
- Fog effects
- Fast wireframe scenery preview
- size or aspect ratio of texture
file needs not be the same as of elevation file (automatic
resizing at run-time)
- Allows masking, you can overlay
your own logo
- Produces single images or series
of images for creating animations
- Input files: TGA format; any
bitmap editor capable of loading TGA files can load TruFlite
elevation or texture files as well
- Output files: TGA and/or YUV
- Import filters for:
- ASCII x/y/z
- U.S. Geological Survey 3 arc
second DEMs
- U.S. Geological Survey 7.5
minute (30 meter) DEMs
- U.S. Geological Survey 30 arc
second BILs
- Erdas Imagine® binary files
- Idrisi binary file import
filter
- ARC/View DEM files
- generic binary file import
filter
- Import of multiple DEMs - tiling
is done automatically
- Output can be compiled to FLI/FLC,
AVI, MOV or MPEG animations
- Edit/clipboard copy/print
preview/print functions even during the rendering process
- Animations: move along straight
lines or along a closed curve
- Define the flight path by
clicking and dragging the waypoints directly on the map
- Export or import images via the
clipboard
- rectify or rotate texture data
from scanned maps to fit the elevation data
- Use scanned maps as source for
elevation data, create DEM files out of height contour lines
- The crew that has been
developing TruFlite over the past decade are all C++ and
visualization experts as well
- The program emerged from an
object oriented design process from the very beginning which makes
it now easy for us to adapt it to any future needs
