Simple terrain with exaggeration, haze and shadows
This example provides a planet-wide visualization of Copernicus GLO-30 DEM. It’s the same configuration as the one used here with a couple of distinctions. Vertical exaggeration is set to vary between 1 and 16 according to the map scale. The atmospheric visibility is made dependent on distance, making the haze more pronounced in close-up views.
A related example leaves out the illumination altogether, showing just the haze and shadows effects. The entire Earth surface is effectively renderer in a single pale yellow color.
