FAQ
BT to WRL Conversion
What are BT files?
BT is a binary terrain format developed by Ben Discoe for the Virtual Terrain Project (VTP) to store regular elevation grids used in 3D terrain visualization and simulation. A file of this type consists of a fixed 256-byte header followed by an uncompressed array of elevation samples, stored as 16-bit integers, 32-bit integers, or 32-bit floating-point numbers. The header carries the grid dimensions, sample size, horizontal units, geographic extents, datum, and, for projected data, a UTM zone, while a complete projection definition may be supplied in an accompanying .prj file. Elevation samples are written column by column, starting from the western edge and moving south to north within each column. The format is used to exchange digital elevation models between terrain-building tools and visualization software, and is often distributed in a gzip-compressed .bt.gz form.
What are WRL files?
The WRL file format (commonly known as VRML, Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is a standard file format for representing 3D interactive vector graphics and textures, designed particularly for the early World Wide Web. Files using this format typically carry the .wrl extension.
