Support large DEM tiling for large outdoor terrain simulation #638

Open Ryanf55 opened 2 months ago

Ryanf55 commented 2 months ago

Desired behavior

I want to simulate flight of an outdoor robot over a large DEM with collision enabled. The entire DEM dataset is too big for Gazebo to render, so it needs to be "tiled".

A nice-to-have would be ability to overlay real satellite imagery on the same terrain
