This interim technical report discusses a project under the Advanced Visualization and Interactive Displays (AVID) in-house program to develop techniques to load and display voluminous high-resolution terrain data with sufficient visual quality and interactivity. The AVID program objectives are to develop, evaluate, and exploit new concepts in information visualization, display technology, and human-computer interaction (HCI) that provide airmen with a tailored information environment. The result of this project was the successful design and implementation of a data structure for storing, manipulating, and processing terrain data vertex information, and an algorithm that intelligently processes the information contained within the data structure.

This study provides evidence of the influence of DTED resolution (in regions with different terrain roughness) on Army terrain data applications. The report documents results of the U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center's DTED resolution analysis including extensive field work and terrain visualization undertaken to investigate DTED integrity in comparison to the actual terrain. Finally, the report offers conclusions regarding DTED support for Army tactical and simulation applications.
