public class SkyGradientLayer
extends AbstractLayer

Renders an atmosphere around the globe and a sky dome at low altitude.

Note : based on a spherical globe.
Issue : Ellipsoidal globe doesnt match the spherical atmosphere everywhere.

Renders an atmosphere around the globe

Method Detail

applyDrawProjection

protected void applyDrawProjection(DrawContext dc,
                                   OGLStackHandler ogsh)

applyDrawTransform

protected void applyDrawTransform(DrawContext dc,
                                  OGLStackHandler ogsh)

CartesianToSpherical

protected static Vec4 CartesianToSpherical(double x,
                                           double y,
                                           double z)

Converts position in cartesian coordinates (XYZ) to spherical (radius, lat, lon) coordinates.

Parameters:

x - X coordinate

y - Y coordinate

z - Z coordinate

Returns:

a Vec4 point for the spherical coordinates {radius, lat, lon}

doRender

public void doRender(DrawContext dc)

Specified by:

doRender in class AbstractLayer

drawSkyDome

protected void drawSkyDome(DrawContext dc,
                           float radius,
                           double startLat,
                           double endLat,
                           int slices,
                           int stacks,
                           float zenithOpacity,
                           float gradientBias)

Draws the sky dome

Parameters:

dc - the current DrawContext

radius - the sky dome radius

startLat - the horizon latitude

endLat - the zenith latitude

slices - the number of slices - vertical divisions

stacks - the nuber os stacks - horizontal divisions

zenithOpacity - the sky opacity at zenith

gradientBias - determines how fast the sky goes from the horizon color to the zenith color. A value of 1 with produce a balanced gradient, a value greater then 1 will have the zenith color dominate and a value less then 1 will have the opposite effect.

getAtmosphereThickness

setAtmosphereThickness

public void setAtmosphereThickness(double thickness)

Set the atmosphere thickness in meter

Parameters:

thickness - the atmosphere thickness in meter

setHorizonColor

public void setHorizonColor(Color color)

Set the horizon color

Parameters:

color - the horizon color

setZenithColor

public void setZenithColor(Color color)

Set the zenith color

Parameters:

color - the zenith color
