The following MPEG files were generated by grabbing the screen to a movie
file in real-time on an SGI workstation. They show live demonstrations
of the TerraVisionTM system operating in real-time, as well as some
prerendered animation sequences.

Buzzing the MOUT Site
In this movie we fly over the MOUT site
at Ft Benning, GA. We begin with only the 15 cm imagery, then as
the flight path circles around behind the site we turn on the texture-mapped
building models for the site, created using SRI's Cartographic Modeling
Environment. We then fly over the buildings and circle back round
for a view of the entire MOUT site.

Visualizing Air Turbulence
This movie is taken over the Colorado
Rockies with an isosurface representing a clear air turbulence feature
over the mountains. The turbulence model was created by the National
Center for Atmospheric Research.

Flight over the United States
This flyover begins with an overhead view
of the United States, then flies out to the San Francisco Bay Area
over the Rocky mountains, turns around and heads towards Florida,
and then curves round to Washington D.C. The movie was generated
