Method Summary

void	addAtmosphericCondition(AtmosphericCondition conditions) adds a atmospheric condition to the scene.
void	addFeature(Group feature) adds a feature that shall be rendered.
void	addLight(Light light) adds a light to the scene. this can be ambient, directional and point light.
AtmosphericCondition[]	getAtmosphericConditions() returns the athmospheric conditions of the scene
GM_Position[]	getBackFrame() returns the four corner coordinates of farest frame the viewer sees and that contains data
java.lang.Object	getBackground() returns the background object of the scene. this may be a Background, a Shape3D or null if no background is defined.
java.util.Calendar	getDate() returns the date and day time defined for the scene
GM_Envelope	getEnvelope() returns the envelope od the scene.
Group[]	getFeatures() returns the feature of the scene that are not part of the terrain
GM_Position[]	getFrontBorderFrame() returns the four corner coordinates of frame the viewer sees next to him and that contains data
Light[]	getLights() returns the lights of the scene
Shape3D[]	getTerrain() returns the features that constructs the terrain model of the scene
ViewPoint	getViewPoint() gets the position of the viewer, the directions he looks and his field of view in radians
void	setAtmosphericConditions(AtmosphericCondition[] conditions) sets the atmospheric conditions for the rendering. e.g. if a clear day (maybe summer late morning) is assumed there will be very sharp shadows. if vice versa a cloudy day (let's say autumn late afternoon) with some poor rain and a bit fog is assumed there won't be sharp shadows but some kind of 'gray curtain' over the scene.
void	setBackground(Background background) sets the Background object of the scene
void	setDate(java.util.Calendar calendar) set the date and the time for determining time depending the light conditions of the scene
void	setFeatures(Group[] features) sets the features that shall be rendered.
void	setLights(Light[] lights) sets the lights of the scene. this can be ambient, directional and point light.
void	setTerrain(Shape3D feature) sets the terrain of the WTS-Scene as Shape3D object containing an appearence
void	setViewPoint(ViewPoint viewPoint) defines the position of the viewer and the point he looks at.

Method Detail

setTerrain

public void setTerrain(Shape3D feature)

sets the terrain of the WTS-Scene as Shape3D object containing an appearence

getTerrain

public Shape3D[] getTerrain()

returns the features that constructs the terrain model of the scene

setFeatures

public void setFeatures(Group[] features)

sets the features that shall be rendered.

addFeature

public void addFeature(Group feature)

adds a feature that shall be rendered.

getFeatures

public Group[] getFeatures()

returns the feature of the scene that are not part of the terrain

setBackground

public void setBackground(Background background)

sets the Background object of the scene

getBackground

public java.lang.Object getBackground()

returns the background object of the scene. this may be a Background, a Shape3D or null if no background is defined.

setViewPoint

public void setViewPoint(ViewPoint viewPoint)

defines the position of the viewer and the point he looks at.

getViewPoint

public ViewPoint getViewPoint()

gets the position of the viewer, the directions he looks and his field of view in radians

setDate

public void setDate(java.util.Calendar calendar)

set the date and the time for determining time depending the light conditions of the scene

getDate

public java.util.Calendar getDate()

setAtmosphericConditions

public void setAtmosphericConditions(AtmosphericCondition[] conditions)

sets the atmospheric conditions for the rendering. e.g. if a clear day (maybe summer late morning) is assumed there will be very sharp shadows. if vice versa a cloudy day (let's say autumn late afternoon) with some poor rain and a bit fog is assumed there won't be sharp shadows but some kind of 'gray curtain' over the scene.
