betogulliver commented 2 weeks ago

Has anybody used "horizonator" to render Mars DEM data? if so, which DEM data did you use? what modifications where necessary to adapt 'horizonator' for Mars? (horizonator-lib.c Rearth = XXX)

any pointers/ideas/code is much appreciated. thank

Yes: https://www-robotics.jpl.nasa.gov/media/documents/Toward_Autonomous_Localization_of_Planetary_Robotic_Explorers_by_Relying_on_Se_JoTX19T.pdf

Kyle (one of the authors) did this work; you should ask him.

I recall the modifications were minor; just stuff to use a different DEM format

thanks for the update and for horizonator!

I'll ask Kyle for details.
