Many of today's and tomorrow's aviation applications demand accurate and reliable digital terrain elevation databases. Particularly future vertical cut displays or 3D synthetic vision systems (SVS) require accurate and hi-resolution data to offer a reliable terrain depiction. On the other hand, optimized or reduced terrain models are necessary to ensure real-time rendering and computing performance. In the paper a method for adaptive terrain meshing and depiction for SVS is presented. The initial data set is decomposed by using a wavelet transform. By examining the wavelet coefficients, an adaptive surface approximation for various level-of-detail is determined. Additionally, the dyadic scaling of the wavelet transform is used to build a hierarchical quad-tree representation for the terrain data. The representation enhances fast interactive computations and real-time rendering methods. The proposed terrain representation is integrated into a standard navigation display. Due to the multi-resolution data organization, terrain depiction. Moreover, the wavelet decomposition helps to define local regions of interest. A depicted terrain resolution has a finer grain nearby the current airplane position and gets coarser with increasing aircraft distance. In addition, flight critical regions can be depicted in a higher resolution.
