gwaldron/osgearth - Githubissues

Welcome to osgEarth!

osgEarth adds geospatially accurate 3D maps to your C++ application.

osgEarth builds on trusted open source technologies like OpenSceneGraph and GDAL to give you high-performance, accurate terrain and map rendering. It supports a myriad of geospatial data formats and map projections.

Install the SDK

Windows users can install the latest version of osgEarth through vcpkg:

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git
cd vcpkg && bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
vcpkg install osgearth:x64-windows

This will take a while the first time as vcpkg builds osgEarth and its dependencies.

Check out some examples

osgearth_imgui is the main command-line viewer. osgearth_viewer is a stripped-down viewer without any GUI. Both of these read "earth files", XML files that describe the contents of a map.

You can find example earth files in the tests folder of the repo.

:: Online imagery and elevation:
osgearth_imgui tests\readymap.earth

:: OpenStreetMap:
osgearth_imgui tests\osm.earth

:: Local GeoTIFFs:
osgearth_imgui tests\simple.earth
