Prerequisites
- Data:
- Two raster layers(e.g. vegetation and model output rasters).
- Working Renderview window with at least one terrain and one color raster loaded.
Using veneer as relief
- Make sure your RenderView window is selected. This is is the window with about 35 different tabs on with names like 'Raster', 'Sites', 'Cam1', 'World', 'Ven', 'Time', 'Sun' etc.
- Go to the Ven tab. This tab has two UseeControls like the generic one below: UseeControls are one of the ways Tarsier loads and shares data, you can learn more about it here: Tarsier: UseeControl.
- Go to the Veneer: UseeControl and click the Open button. Browse to the raster that you want to use as relief (e.g 440/550 class would use the LandCover4_BGST.tra raster) and click open.
- Set the density ('Den') to about 0.3
- Your veneer should show up on top of your terrain. If not showing...
- Make sure the veneer is enabled by checking the checkbox on the upper left corner of the Ven tab.
Using a different raster for the color
- If you want the relief to get colors from a different raster, say a model output raster.
- Go the right side of the Ven tab.
- Go to UseeControl named Veneer color and load your color raster(e.g. your output Y1Raster.tra) by selecting it from the drop-down box. If the raster is not there, you can click the Open button to load it.
- Check the Use veener color raster? box.
- If colors look weird...
- click the C button next to the enable checkbox. This will bring it up a colorscheme window. Here you can change the colors to whatever makes sense for your raster or model output.
- Now go to the VenT tab.
- Go to the upper left corner and uncheck the Ven 1 Trasparent checkbox. This will make your veneer easier to see.
- You're going to end up with something that looks like the picture below.
