General

This page summarizes concepts and approaches to creating planet surfaces as seen from orbit. Topics of atmospheric entry and close-to-surface planetary topology or atmospheric effects or texturing should be covered in a separate document. Two main topics are covered in this document:

  • Development of textured surfaces
  • Development of procedural surfaces


References

References apply both to textured and procedural approaches if not stated otherwise.
