  2. GRASS GIS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grass_GIS

    GRASS has been under continuous development since 1982 [3] and has involved a large number of federal US agencies, universities, and private companies. The core components of GRASS and the management of integration of efforts into its releases was originally directed by the U.S. Army - Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USA-CERL), a branch of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in ...

  3. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture streaming is a means of using data streams for textures, where each texture is available in two or more different resolutions, as to determine which texture should be loaded into memory and used based on draw distance from the viewer and how much memory is available for textures. Texture streaming allows a rendering engine to use low ...

  4. Bump mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_mapping

    Bump mapping [1] is a texture mapping technique in computer graphics for simulating bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object. This is achieved by perturbing the surface normals of the object and using the perturbed normal during lighting calculations. The result is an apparently bumpy surface rather than a smooth surface, although the ...

  5. Normal mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

    In 3D computer graphics, normal mapping, or Dot3 bump mapping, is a texture mapping technique used for faking the lighting of bumps and dents – an implementation of bump mapping. It is used to add details without using more polygons . [ 1 ]

  6. Terrain cartography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrain_cartography

    Texture mapping or bump mapping is a technique adapted from Computer graphics that adds a layer of shaded texture to the shaded surface relief that imitates the look of the local land cover. [13] This texture can be generated in several ways: Texture substitution: Copying, abstracting, and merging remote sensing imagery of land cover. [14]

  7. Tone mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_mapping

    Tone mapped high-dynamic-range (HDR) image of St. Kentigerns Roman Catholic Church in Blackpool, Lancashire, England, UK. Tone mapping is a technique used in image processing and computer graphics to map one set of colors to another to approximate the appearance of high-dynamic-range (HDR) images in a medium that has a more limited dynamic range.

  9. Great Piece of Turf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Piece_of_Turf

    The watercolour shows a large piece of turf and little else. The various plants can be identified as cock's-foot, creeping bent, smooth meadow-grass, daisy, dandelion, germander speedwell, greater plantain, hound's-tongue and yarrow. [5] The painting shows a great level of realism in its portrayal of natural objects. [6]
