File Format Descriptions:


Tile Sets

A Tile set is the multiresolution format which TerraVision uses to store the raw ortho-imagery and elevation data for a terrain model.

Tspecs

The Tile Set Specification (tspec) files contain all information (metadata) about a tile set (tile sets just contain raw pixel data). For example, the size of an image, the number of pixel components, the tile size, coordinate systems, description of area, etc.

Global Databases

The Global Dataset Database is essentially a cache containing descriptions for a set of available terrain datasets. These datasets may be distributed over many different servers.

GeoVRML Specification

This link takes you to the specification document for GeoVRML 1.0. This is a standard extension to VRML97 for supporting geographic applications.
