: The performance of a walkthrough over terrain models is deeply influenced by the real scenario high level of details. To guarantee natural and smooth changes in a sequence of sce...
In this paper, we present an algorithm that performs simplification of large geographical maps through a novel use of graphics hardware. Given a map as a collection of non-interse...
