Geodata Examples

This page lists all geodata examples that are included in the Tinman 3D SDK.

All 3rd party geodata that is consumed by the geodata examples is subject to the respective terms of use. The same may apply to the generated output datasets. For legal advise on how to use that data, please refer to the respective geodata provider.

Overview

Each geodata example contains the following items:

Input geodata (data/*)
In case that 3rd party geodata is not included in the SDK download, the file corresponding *.tms script file contains a description of the required input geodata files, and instructions on how to download them.
Processing script (*.tms)
The Geodata Processor can be used to run the processing scripts from the command line. The Workshop Application can be used to open the geodata examples project src.twp/geodata_examples.twp, which references all processing scripts.

Some geodata examples require that GDAL is installed.
Batch file (*.cmd)
Shows how to invoke the tinmanpc tool from the command line.
Output raster datasets (*.hgt)
The output datasets are not included in the SDK download. They can be generated from scratch by running the processing scripts, which requires to download the input data first.

Download ready-to-use output datasets here: https://data.tinman3d.online.

Download

The Demo Application will stream raster datasets from their online URLs, if they cannot be found locally. To run in offline mode, please download the datasets and put them into the corresponding SDK path:

"https://data.tinman3d.online/geo/WorldMachine/Lakes.hgt" (1)
        "$(SDK_DIR)/data.bulk/geo/WorldMachine/Lakes.hgt" (2)
//                            \________________________/
//                             This part is always identical.

1	URL to the online dataset
2	Path to the dataset in the `data.bulk` SDK directory

Due to the size of the dataset files, we recommend to use a download manager that can handle broken connections.

Alternatively, you can use the Workshop Application to bulk download all raster datasets, by running the following script target:

download_bulk (1)
src.twp/geodata_examples.tms (2)
src.twp/geodata_examples.twp (3)

1	The script member to run
2	The enclosing script file
3	The enclosing Workshop Application project

Verify the MD5 checksum of each downloaded dataset to make sure all data has been downloaded correctly.

The classification codes are mapped to terrain material IDs as follows:

Ocean: 0% coverage
River: 100% coverage with material ID 1
Lake: 100% coverage with material ID 2
Land: 100% coverage with material ID 3

To get a solid dataset, use material swizzle to turn coverage into material ID 0.
