A height sector stores the height data for the Elevation model. Each height sector is a square tile of 500m x 500m. Height values are stored in meters with a precision of 3 decimals. The number of points per height sector depends on the DEM resolution configured in the New Project Wizard's advanced options during project creation and cannot be changed later.
Height sectors are not directly accessed in the editor, but can be manipulated indirectly using the terrain height brush or by applying Elevation GeoTIFFs.
Heightmap Option
The Heightmap option is stored as an enumeration in the Geo Option HEIGHTMAP_RESOLUTION.
| Enum | Point distance (meter) | Height points per sector |
|---|---|---|
| SUPER | 0.25 | 2000 x 2000 points |
| HIGH | 0.5 | 1000 x 1000 points |
| NORMAL | 1.0 | 500 x 500 points |
| LOW | 2.5 | 200 x 200 points |
| BASIC | 10.0 | 50 x 50 points |
Notes
- Height sector is a Sourced Item, which means it records which Sources created it and which Sources changed any of its properties.
