Unigine::LandscapeFetch Class

For each request you can engage or disengage certain data types (albedo, heights, masks, etc.). When the data type is engaged, you can obtain information via the corresponding get() method. Disengaging unnecessary data when performing requests saves some performance (e.g., you can engage albedo data only if you need only color information at a certain point).
Both fetch and intersection requests can be performed asynchronously when an instant result is not required.

The workflow is as follows:

Create a new LandscapeFetch object instance.
Set necessary parameters (e.g. which data layers are to be used, whether to enable holes or not, etc.).
To get terrain data for a certain point call the fetchForce() method providing coordinates for the desired point.
Notice
You can also fetch terrain data asynchronously via the fetchAsync() method.
To find an intersection of a traced line with the terrain call either the intersectionForce() method or the intersectionAsync() method, if you want to perform an asynchronous request.

Usage Example#

Source code (C++)

// creating a fetch object and setting necessary parameters
LandscapeFetchPtr landscape_fetch = LandscapeFetch::create();

// disengage all terrain data types to enable only the necessary ones 
landscape_fetch->setUses(0);

// enable checking for height data in fetch/intersection requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setUsesHeight(true);
// enable checking for normals data in fetch/intersection requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setUsesNormal(true);

// enable checking for terrain holes in fetch/intersection requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setHolesEnabled(true);

// enable checking for necessary masks (e.g. first and second) in fetch/intersection requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setUsesMask(0, true);
landscape_fetch->setUsesMask(1, true);

// ...

// getting terrain data for a point at (100, 100) and printing the height value
landscape_fetch->setFetchPosition(Vec2(100, 100));
if (landscape_fetch->fetchForce())
	Log::message("Terrain height at the specified point is: %f", Scalar(landscape_fetch->getHeight()));

Asynchronous Operations Example#

Source code (C++)

// creating a fetch object and setting necessary parameters
LandscapeFetchPtr landscape_fetch = LandscapeFetch::create();
// disengage all terrain data types to enable only the necessary ones 
landscape_fetch->setUses(0);
// enable checking for height data in fetch/intersection requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setUsesHeight(true);
// enable checking for terrain holes in fetch requests, if necessary
landscape_fetch->setHolesEnabled(true);

// ...

// making an asynchronous fetch request for a point at (2.05, 2.05)
landscape_fetch->setFetchPosition(Vec2(2.05f, 2.05f));
landscape_fetch->fetchAsync();

// ...

// checking if our asynchronous fetch request is completed and printing the height value
if (landscape_fetch->isAsyncCompleted())
		Log::message("Terrain height at the specified point is: %f", Scalar(landscape_fetch->getHeight()));

const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches - List of fetch requests to be completed.

void intersectionForce ( const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches ) #

Performs tracing (batch) along the line from the p0 point specified by the setIntersectionPositionBegin() to the p1 point specified by the setIntersectionPositionEnd() to find an intersection with the terrain in forced mode. You can use the intersectionAsync() method to reduce load, when an instant result is not required.

Arguments

const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches - List of fetch requests to be completed.

void fetchAsync ( const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches, bool critical = false ) #

Fetches (batch) terrain data for the point specified by the setFetchPosition() in asynchronous mode (the corresponding task shall be put to the queue, to wait until the result is obtained use the wait() method). For an instant result use the fetchForce() method.

Arguments

const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches - List of fetch requests to be completed.
bool critical - true to set high priority for the fetch task, false - to set normal priority.

void intersectionAsync ( const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches, bool critical = false ) #

Performs tracing (batch) along the line from the p0 point specified by the setIntersectionPositionBegin() to the p1 point specified by the setIntersectionPositionEnd() to find an intersection with the terrain in asynchronous mode (the corresponding task shall be put to the queue, to wait until the result is obtained use the wait() method). For an instant result use the intersectionForce() method.

Arguments

const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches - List of fetch requests to be completed.
bool critical - true to set high priority for the intersection task, false - to set normal priority.

void wait ( ) #

Waits for completion of the fetch operation. As the operation is completed you can obtain necessary data via get*() methods.

void wait ( const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches ) #

Waits for completion of the specified fetch operations. As the operations are completed you can obtain necessary data via get*() methods.

Arguments

const Vector<Ptr<LandscapeFetch>> & fetches - List of fetch requests to be completed.
