What is the 'Renderer'?
Strictly speaking, a renderer is any process that produces a visual representation of some data. So a RasterView is a renderer. However, the Renderer in Tarsier conventionally refers to the main 3D renderer that is used to produce most 3D visualizations.
The Renderer draws 3D scenes described by a wide range of data, including multiple rasters, vectors, sites, etc.
Using the Renderer to view some raster data and nothing else
- Open Tarsier
- Open a new Renderer
- Select File --> New --> Data Views --> Render View (if its not on the list, you need to load a DLL)
- Load some RasterData into the Renderer
- Select the 'Raster' tab
- Select 'Open' on the UseeControl named 'Raster'
