Abstract

Nowadays, the 3D terrain rendering algorithms have very important role in the wide variety of applications, starting from the video games up to the time-critical simulations, and real-time systems for command and control. RINGO algorithm presented in this paper enables the out-of-core terrain rendering with minimal CPU utilization. Based on OpenGL, it is easily portable to various platforms and operating systems.
